processing-instruction may turn a XML file into an application,
at least in the context of browsers.
Try this:
http://stamm-wilbrandt.de/en/xsl-list/peg-solitaire/English.xml
For me that is a full application ...
English.xml is based on this previous posting on xsl-list:

I use "vocabulary" to mean the set of defined names and their semantics.
I avoid "XML Application" because it's confusing (an "application" is a
program that runs, for most people today, not an abstract markup
language).
Markup Language can also be used, but it's more jargonesque and I prefer
to avoid being over-precise when precision isn't needed.
