A new XML transformation tool based on Swift
Based on reflections on XML transformation tools such as XSLT or the lesser known but very good Metamorphosis programming language for XML (parts of which served as input for the development of XPath) and years of experience with complex XML transformations for technical documentation in various industries, a new solution based on the Swift programming language was developed to overcome the weaknesses of the existing ones. This solution is released as open source under a permissive license and is already successfully used for some time now at the German Institute for Standardisation (DIN). In this introduction, we talk about why we think a new solution was needed, how it compares and why Swift was chosen as the base language.
