!!! Overview[1]
[{$pagename}] ([SGML]; [ISO 8879]:1986) is for defining generalized markup languages for documents. [ISO 8879] Annex A.1 defines generalized markup:
Generalized markup is based on two postulates:
* Markup should be declarative: it should describe a document's structure and other attributes, rather than specify the processing to be performed on it. Declarative markup is less likely to conflict with unforeseen future processing needs and techniques.
* Markup should be rigorous so that the techniques available for processing rigorously-defined objects like programs and databases can be used for processing documents as well.
[HTML] was theoretically an example of an SGML-based language until HTML 5, which admits that browsers cannot parse it as SGML (for compatibility reasons) and codifies exactly what they must do instead.
