21:32.44 | Solvaring | is knowledge of XML also required to make good quality addons? |
21:32.44 | Solvaring | i've been spending all of the last 5 days smashing my way through "programming in lua 4th edition" |
21:32.44 | Solvaring | i'm wondering if I should also pull out some of my books on XML as well |
23:34.06 | Iriel | You only need the most rudimentary XML skills |
23:34.47 | Iriel | Unless you're deeply interested in XML, I wouldn't bother diving too deep. Just learn the general syntax of XML, and then find a reference or a bunch of examples about the UI framework you want to use. |
23:35.30 | Iriel | i.e. It's not "XML" you have to learn but "The XML structure of the UI you're working with" |
