Blizzard uses/used XSLT for WoW.

Was that before/after the LUA adoption?

  • Before. And after.

    XSLT controls the styling, Lua the running functions. When Lua adjusts a visible thing, it generates XSLT.

    "FrameXML" is a thin Lua wrapper around the base XSLT.

    • WoW...literally and figuratively! Thanks for background. That explains some error messages I got waaaaaay back in the day.
