Berners-Lee declared that the technology must remain freely available, with no patents or royalty-fees, to be accessible to everyone. He also invented HTML (based on CERN’s SGML markup) for formatting text-based content, distributing the technology outside of CERN in 1991. To make HTTP easier to interface with, Berners-Lee built the world’s first web server and web browser to navigate it in 1990. It used a technology called Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) that transmitted data over TCP/IP, which is why all URLs start with “HTTP” to this day. It was the English scientist, Sir Tim Berners-Lee, who invented the World Wide Web in 1989 while working at CERN in Switzerland.
