What is Saxon?

The Saxon package is a collection of tools for processing XML documents. The main components are:

Full details of Saxon's conformance to the specifications are provided in the Conformance section.

In addition, Saxon provides an extensive library of extensions, all implemented in conformance with the XSLT and XQuery Recommendations to ensure that portable stylesheets and queries can be written. These include the EXSLT extension libraries common, sets, math, and dates-and-times. Many of these extensions were pioneered in Saxon and have since become available in other products.

These extension functions are in general accessible from XQuery and XPath as well as XSLT, except where they depend on stylesheet information. Many extensions are available in Saxon-PE only, and some only in Saxon-EE.
