Who invented the World Wide Web?

World

 The development of the Web began in 1989 by the popular Tim Berners-Lee and his colleagues at CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, including the Belgian Robert Cailliau, who played a key role in the development of the Web, but whose work remained partly in the shadowTogether, they created a protocol, Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), which standardized communication between servers and clients. This invention can best be seen as a system — a browser — that connects all individual websites.

Robert Cailliau started working in 1974 at CERN, where, in 1989, he tried to develop a system that connected information systems. At the same time, the British Tim Berners-Lee was working on a similar technique and they decided to collaborate.

Initially, the Web was intended to facilitate the exchange of information between the scientists at CERN. The data scientists created an environment in which project documentation and other information could be created and maintained in a jointly created hypertext that could be viewed and modified directly over the internet.
