The timeline for the development of Internet technology.

The modern Internet is an ever-growing number of pages and web applications linked by links. It is full of videos, photos and interactive content. However, the interaction of web technologies, through which all this works so smoothly, remains hidden from the eyes of the average user.

Web technologies have gradually developed to such a level that developers have the opportunity to create web content of the new generation. Today’s Internet is the result of the continuous efforts of an open web community that helps develop technologies such as HTML5, CSS3 and WebGL, and is supported by all browsers.

Colored ribbons in infographics represent the relationship between web technologies and browsers, thanks to which so many functional web applications are available to us.
