Who is known as father of HTML?

Sir Tim Berners-Lee is known as the father of HTML.

In 1989, Berners-Lee developed HTML , which led to the creation of the WWW. HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the code that is used to structure a web page and its contents. 

Sir Tim Berners-Lee is widely known as the father of HTML for a good reason. He was responsible for developing the first web browser, laying out what would become the foundation of modern web technology.

Born in 1955 in London, England to two mathematicians who worked on early computers at University College London (UCL), Berners-Lee had a passion for computer science from an early age. After receiving his degree from Oxford University in 1976 he went on to work with various companies before joining CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research) where he started working with hypertext systems and developed his concept of linking information together over networks which eventually became HTML or HyperText Markup Language – now considered one of the most important inventions ever created by humanity!

In 1989 Sir Tim wrote a proposal outlining how documents could be linked across different computers using hypertext links that were embedded into each document; this was then presented to fellow colleagues at CERN who approved it and allowed him access to their network so that he could start building his vision - thus starting off what we know today as The World Wide Web! His invention has since revolutionized our lives allowing us to access information quickly & easily while connecting with people all around the globe through social media platforms such as Facebook or Twitter etc...
