This hands-on course will introduce students to the fundamentals of the XSL Transformation language (XSLT) for manipulating and transforming XML documents and data. At its core, a transformation expressed in XSLT describes rules for transforming input data into output data.
Some of the rules and topics we’ll cover will include:
We’ll focus primarily on XSLT v.2.0 and the latest XSLT version, v.3.0.
As we learn how to build XSL stylesheets, we’ll also focus on some best practices around XSLT structure, syntax, and approaches to transforming data.
Students should have a basic knowledge of XML and XPath before starting the course, but no knowledge of XSLT is necessary. The natural way to prepare would be to take Transforming and Querying XML with XSLT and XQuery first.
