Use the namespace aware DOM Level 2 methods like createElementNS e.g. to 
create
<root xmlns="http://example.com/2008/ns1"><foo><bar>baz</bar></foo></root>
with the DOM you need e.g.

const ns1 = 'http://example.com/2008/ns1';
var doc = document.implementation.createDocument(ns1, 'root', null);
var foo = doc.createElementNS(ns1, 'foo');
var bar = doc.createElementNS(ns1, 'bar');
bar.textContent = 'baz';
foo.appendChild(bar);
doc.documentElement.appendChild(foo);
