Simple non-compiant XML parser because we just need to parse some basic responses and libxml takes forever to compile :D you probably don't want to use this unless you also have similar needs.
$ npm install xmlparser2
const fs = require("fs")
const { XMLparse } = require("xmlparser2")
const xml = fs.readFileSync("example.xml", "utf8")
const obj = XMLparse(xml)XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
