The World Wide Web (Web) is a system of documents on the Internet that are linked to each other by hyperlinks. The principles of the Web were developed in 1989 by Tim Berners-Lee of the CERN Particle Physics Research Center. Its original goal was the automated sharing of information between researchers working in different institutions around the world. The basic idea was to create a global information network by combining the capabilities of computers, a computer network, and hypertext. The World Wide Web differs from the hypertext systems of the time in several ways: One-way linking is allowed on the WWW, it does not need to be two-way. This allows you to refer to someone’s material without having to visit that person. The WWW was not patented against certain applications such as HyperCard and Gopher. This allowed servers and clients to be developed independently and extended with extensions without license restrictions. On April 30, 1993, CERN announced that the World Wide Web was free and free for everyone. The World Wide Web is based on three standards: The Uniform Resource Locator (URL) describes what a unique “address” each page should have; Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP) specifies how the browser and server send information to each other and the Hyper Text Markup Language (HTML), the process of encoding information to make a page viewable on a variety of devices. . Berners-Lee currently works for the World Wide Web Consortium, which develops and maintains these standards, as well as others that enable computers to store and send information efficiently.
