If you’re like me, you find XML a real pain to deal with, but yet it still seems to exist with various web services. If you’re using Android or AngularJS , these frameworks can’t process XML out of the box, but they can JSON. With the assistance of a PHP powered web server, you can easily transform the nasty XML responses you get into something more usable like JSON.
