The Dancer2::Cookbook suggests that, when writing REST applications with Dancer2, it should be easy to serialize data to XML as well as to JSON, YAML and Data::Dumper. (See: https://metacpan.org/source/XSAWYERX/Dancer2-0.200002/lib/Dancer2/Cookbook.p....) However, there exists no Dancer2::Serializer::XML package, so this part of the Cookbook is misleading.
Similarly misleading information in Dancer2::Manual; see https://metacpan.org/source/XSAWYERX/Dancer2-0.200002/lib/Dancer2/Manual.pod...
The absence of XML support came up in this StackOverflow thread: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/28236767/how-can-i-use-xml-serializer-in-.... A first draft of a Dancer2::Serializer::XML package was provided there by Daniel Böhmer. Granted, it uses XML::Simple, whose maintainer discourages new usage of that library. But apart from this, is there any reason why to date there is no support for XML serialization in Dancer2?
