About

Sass ("syntactically awesome style sheets") is a stylesheet language that compiles to CSS and allows developers to use variables, nested rules, mixins, and functions.

Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a markup language and file format for storing, transmitting, and reconstructing structured data in a platform-independent way.

It uses a hierarchical tree structure with custom-defined tags, supports schemas such as DTD and XML Schema for validation, enables namespaces to avoid naming conflicts, and is widely used in formats and protocols such as RSS, SOAP, and configuration files.
