What does XML minification do?
Removes all whitespace between tags without affecting the data, reducing file size for faster transmission.
What is XML used for?
Data interchange between systems, configuration files, SOAP web services, RSS/Atom feeds, SVG graphics and Microsoft Office document formats (docx, xlsx are ZIP files containing XML).
