What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-30, confidence not recorded
A lightweight, pure Go library that represents XML documents as element trees, inspired by Python's ElementTree. It supports parsing, creating, modifying, serializing XML, and querying with XPath-like APIs.
Use cases
- parse xml files in go
- query xml with xpath-like expressions
- create xml documents from scratch
- modify and re-serialize xml
- pretty-print xml with indentation
- traverse xml element trees
When to choose
- you need an easy, ElementTree-style XML API in Go
- you want a pure-Go dependency with no external libraries
- you need lightweight XPath-like querying without full XPath
When to avoid
- you need full, standards-compliant XPath support
- you need schema validation (XSD) or DTD validation
- you need streaming parsing of very large XML documents
