The History Of Web Design And The People Who Made It Happen [Infographic]

We live in a digital age where we spend hours dwelling over the power of the internet. On that note, have you ever wondered which website made its debut online? Who was the intelligent person to build something called a website and how did it look then? Web development and design has evolved significantly since Berners Lee wrote the first piece of HTML code. Web UI has undergone changes from a static website to dynamic to a responsive interface. Today, we probably take website designs for granted. When we open a website on a tablet or a mobile phone, we almost expect the UI to behave perfectly. Modern browsers have become very versatile and powerful. We even ridicule websites that don’t work smoothly or get angry when browsers crash. Well, it was not always like that. The early websites and browsers were never that perfect. Things changed pretty quickly in two decades. Mosaic came out as a robust browser in the 90s. Soon, invention of PHP made dynamic websites possible. Do you know the key people behind such landmark innovations that made this possible?

Looking at the website history and the people who contributed to such a brilliant discovery, it makes us go ‘WOAH’. If you are feeling a little nostalgic about web design’s humble beginnings, then you will enjoy our infographic:
