Computers connected to the network (Internet) are either servers or clients, and they communicate
with each other through networking protocols. The clients send requests to the servers, and the
servers respond immediately with the required data.
The server stores the files and information in the form of websites. A website is a collection of
web pages. A web page is a document that contains text, graphics, videos, audio, and links to
other pages. Every web page of a website has a unique address called the Uniform Resource
Locator (URL). This URL allows us to access any web page from anywhere in the world. Have you
ever wondered how these web pages are created? HTML is the most widely used language to
design web pages.
HTML
HTML stands for Hypertext Markup Language. It is a markup language that describes the
structure of a web page. It allows us to create web pages that contain paragraphs, headings,
links and block quotes. The output of HTML web pages is same on any type of computer and
on any operating system, e.g., MacOS, Windows, etc. HTML5 was issued/released as a W3C
Recommendation in 2014.
Clickipedia
HTML was created by Tim Berners-Lee in early 1990s but was not officially released. It was
published in 1995 as HTML 2.0. It is a subset of Standard Generalized Markup Language
(SGML).
