By the end of 1990, Tim Berners-Lee had the first Web server and browser up and running at CERN, demonstrating his ideas. He developed the code for his Web server on a NeXT computer. To prevent it being accidentally switched off, the computer had a hand-written label in red ink: “This machine is a server.
The first web server was built at CERN in December 1990, along with the first browser and website. The project was led by British computer scientist Tim Berners-Lee, who invented the World Wide Web (WWW) in 1989. The first website was hosted on Berners-Lee’s NeXT computer and was dedicated to the WWW project.
Berners-Lee’s original proposal for the WWW was submitted to CERN in March 1989. The project was designed to make it easier for scientists at universities and institutes around the world to share information.
