Saxon

Saxon is a software library used to process XML data, which is a way of storing and transporting information with a structured format. It enables programmers to read, manipulate, transform, and query XML documents efficiently. Saxon supports XSLT, a language for converting XML into different formats like HTML or plain text, and XQuery, for extracting specific data. It's widely used in applications involving data translation, report generation, and web services, providing reliable, standards-compliant tools for handling complex XML tasks in software development.
