What is XML-Driven Design about?

NOTE: "Pattern Programming" is the main blog. This blog is a complementary document.

Introduction

After I got the complete concept of "Pattern Programming" in my mind, I started to ask myseft, How can I make a simple implementation of this concept? What kind of tool should I use? So, after looking for some Open Source projects and new technologies, I decided to use XML, XSLT and Java as my basic tools. Because I implemented this concept based on XML technologies (I used Java only to maximize the XSLT engine power), I decided to call this implementation "XML-Driven Design".

When the "XML-Driven Design" process is over, it comes the "XML-Driven Implementation", which is the process that really produce the code of all the flavour of our different clients and persistent data systems.

At this moment, I'm working on explaning the first step in my methodology and I recommend you to start reading "Pattern Programming".
