Bro the project I'm on uses XSLT and the first time I saw it I legitimately thought I was having a stroke because I could not accept that anybody would be stupid and/or masochistic enough to actually want something like that.

However, I've now made it my mission to master it because it makes me feel like a high-born wizard speaking of ancient secrets in a tower high above humanity

I totally know that feeling :)

Well, in the 90s, XML was the future. Luckily, not a lot of this future remains.

Just imagine what HTML would be like if JSON had been available back then.
