XSLT 3 for XSLT People (3 days)
  Europe: Prague, Feb 2020
  North America: Bethesda/Rockville MD, April



If you're using XSLT, you need to know about XSLT 3. Find out why on
this course. Learn the major new features - streaming, fn:transform,
new instructions, new functions, new data structures, new types.

fn:transform() changes what you can do with XSLT; streaming changes the
size of documents you can process and the speed and efficiency of the
process. JSON and HTML 5 support, along with zip archive support, puts
you ahead of the ebook curve. And there's even a way to make generating
CSS easier. Like, wow.

Higher-order functions simplify a lot of tasks - learn about these, and
learn when not to use them, too. Stylesheets, packages, modes - XSLT
has grown up.

You can write transformations that are easier to read and maintain,
that run faster, that do more.

This is a three-day course aimed primarily at people who have already
met XSLT 2.

Note:

Since not enough people expressed interest in time, though, i will not
be able to run the XProc 3 course, sorry; i am focussing on XSLT 3,
although if enough people want the CSS course I will run that too)
