ENQUIRE was a software project written in 1980 by Tim Berners-Lee at CERN, [2] which was the predecessor to the World Wide Web. [2] [3] [4] It was a simple hypertext program [4] that had some of the same ideas as the Web and the Semantic Web but was different in several important ways.
Tim Berners-Lee wrote what would become known as WorldWideWeb on a NeXT Computer [4] during the second half of 1990, while working for CERN, a European nuclear research agency. The first edition was completed "some time before" 25 December 1990, according to Berners-Lee, after two months of development. [7]
