XML and XSD: a complete W3C-content based course (+10 hours)

If you want to practice, you need to install Eclipse IDE on your computer or laptop. But you can only watch theoretical and practical lectures, on any device connected to the Internet, if you do not have a computer at that time.

There is no programming language or framework required for this course.

You will not be subjected to stupid or useless tests. You know you've got the material right when you successfully deploy and test code, just as you do in hands-on classes. So simple and stress free!

XML and XSD: A Complete W3C Content-Based Course (10+ hours)

Complete XML/XSD content from W3Schools, with excellent explanations and case studies using Eclipse IDE - 2019

XML (Extensible Markup Language) is a markup language that defines a set of rules for encoding documents into a human-readable and machine-readable format. The World Wide Web Consortium 1998 XML specification 1.0 and many other related specifications, all of which are free and open standards - define XML. The design goals of XML emphasize simplicity, commonality, and web usability. It is a textual data format that has strong support through Unicode. For many human languages. Although the design of XML focuses on documents, the language is broad. It is used to represent arbitrary data structures as They are used in web services.Many XML-based languages help define the existence of a schema system, while programmers have developed many APIs to manipulate XML realities.

XSD (XML Schema Definition), a recommendation from the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), defines how elements in an Extensible Markup Language (XML) document are formally described. It can verify that they adhere to the specification of the element they contain. Like all XML Schema languages, XSD can use a set of rules. An XML document must be considered "valid" under this schema. Unlike most other schema languages, XSD is also designed with the intention of providing a set of information to determine the validity of a document. Groups that process specific types of data are created. Developing an XML document processing program. "

- You will learn how to properly use the XML language, as well as its public and private syntax, in accordance with the official recommendations of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C).

- You'll learn all about coding your own XML files, using the elements, attributes, and types - standard and custom - of referenced XSD schemas, as well as how to validate and validate your own XML instances. XSD documents are referenced using Eclipse IDE Automation.

- You will receive a comprehensive theoretical background on how to build your own XSD schema document and key specifications for common and specific XSD architectures, according to the official W3C specification.

- You'll practice with ten examples of how to code your XSD files using 3 W3C-recommended design methods, as well as deriving all the essentials, attributes, and types (from the W3C standard library/namespace). items.

You will be familiar with default and custom namespaces, as well as prefixes, in both XML instances and XSD documents. You'll learn how to import and add multiple XSD documents into a single XSD and how to reference multiple XSD documents from a single XML instance, fun and easy...even your own personal branding in your code. (in my case: danielpm1982).

- All the theory in this course, as well as best practices and techniques used, are based on content from the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and W3Schools, with excellent and complete explanations and case studies.

After taking this course, you will understand the most basic document types used when developing web services or any other application that uses XML and XSD (or WSDL).

- All source code is available on my github, as well as every exercise associated with the lecture, as a zip file. You can easily download them, study them, reuse them and try them out for learning purposes and create better examples. This is how you learn: from the basics, through practice, to mastery. All at your own pace and time and visit each lecture as often as you like.

- Additional content, such as WSDL and JSON theory and practical lectures, as well as lectures with examples of web service projects, demonstrating the real-world applicability of XML, XSD, WSDL and JSON, in the same course, and more and more included in the following months. . But you can remove it.ourse with the current content, as it is, and receive your Udemy Certification on that… and if you want, you may return later, watch the future extra content lectures (WSDL and JSON) and, at the end, receive another Udemy Certification with the updated content and course name. All students will be notified when any future content is added.

- This course is already composed of more than 10 hours, a workload greater than almost all other same-topic courses at Udemy.

- If you wanna practice, you should have Eclipse IDE installed on your PC or notebook. But you can just watch the theory and practical lectures, at any device with internet access, in case you have no computer available at that moment.

No programming languages or frameworks are required for this course.

- No silly or useless tests will be imposed on you. You will know you got the content right when you implement your own code and test it successfully, as done in our practical lectures. Simple as that and with no pressure!

Any human being who wishes to learn XML and XSD for future use in any of their many market applications, specially at, but not limited to, Web Services development.

- The main reference source is the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), which is the creator and worldwide maintainer of the specifications (REC) of XML language and related technologies (XSD, WSDL, etc.). All related links, with W3C content, are attached to each theory lecture description.

What's the difference between taking this course and simply viewing W3Schools material at their own site ?

Although the content is almost entirely referenced on W3C publications, this course offers much better, organized and understandable explanations about the content, and also a much greater set of examples, using Eclipse IDE, from the easiest to the most complex ones. At W3Schools site, for instance, you only find very simple snippets of code.

No objection at all to those who may take more than one course. But this one has an innovative methodology, is more organized and complete (over 10 hours of theory and practices already), as well as it has much better examples, explained step by step, without any hurried 2-3 min lectures. It covers IN FULL everything that W3C suggests about XML and XSD.

- This course is organized similar to university or college lectures, with an average of 1h per lecture. The organization is oriented towards the content itself and not short time limited lectures. I think prioritizing the content on the curriculum organization contributes way better to cohesiveness as well as to the organization and consolidation of the content in anyone's brain. 2-3 min classes end up being a big confusion resulting from a too high fragmentation level of the content. Students always criticize on other courses that everything's too hastily delivered, as if the students already knew the subjects. Here, and differently from that, you'll see it's all nicely and easily delivered, and you won't get lost on the content, even if you never heard about XML or any structural or programming language before. You're free, though, to plan your own individual learning schedule. Just take note of the subject you last saw, and then continue from there when you want.

Finally, this course is divided into Theory and Practice lectures. You'll, thus, have multiple chances, from multiple explanation perspectives, to learn or complement the acknowledging of each topic, subtopics, practices, and so on. And, of course, at your own time, pace and individual needs. The access to this course will be forever yours (it doesn't expire) and you'll be able to review any lecture as much as you want. A big advantage of e-learning recorded lectures compared to live face-to-face attendance lectures.

Please, don't forget to give me some good reviews (stars) at Udemy - if you agree, of course - so that I can be motivated to create many other programming courses, and turn them into best sellers. Thanks in advance! :D

Also, be my guest to suggest anything about this course through the platform or by email.

* Please set the displaying resolution of the lecture videos to 1k at the bottom right configuration button. Udemy generally sets a lower resolution. Although all videos have been rendered and uploaded in 4k, the max resolution at Udemy is 1k (or lower, if you do not set it manually).
