Tim Berners-Lee developed HTML and HTTP in 1990 to share scientific research on the web. He and others founded the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) to establish protocols and standards for web design. The W3C proposed early specifications for HTML and CSS throughout the 1990s that became core web standards. In the 2000s, debates emerged around XHTML and new groups like WHATWG advocated for the continued development of HTML, influencing the W3C to support HTML5 and CSS3, which achieved broad browser support by 2013.

2001-2009 is becoming known as The Great Leap
Nowhere for HTML specifications. The W3C persisted

As we begin this course, the world of web design
has climbed Pikes Peak only to find Mt. Everest
looming ahead. Broad browser compliance with
Web standards has been achieved, but the everincreasing variety of mobile devices poses as great
a challenge as for the future as did the variety of
browsers in the first 20 years of the Web’s history.
