  • the web (also email, file sharing, online gaming, streaming services)

text from BBC
Many people think that the internet and the world wide web are the same thing. While they are closely linked, they are very different systems.

The internet is a huge network of computers all connected together. The world wide web (‘www’ or ‘web’ for short) is a collection of webpages found on this network of computers. Your web browser uses the internet to access the web.

So when you get home from school and ask to go on the internet, you should really say, ‘Can I look at some of the world wide web?’.

HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) Allows HTML documents to be requested and transmitted between browsers and web servers via the internet.

Difference between Frontend and Backend:

Frontend and backend development are quite different from each other, but still, they are two aspects of the same situation. The frontend is what users see and interact with and backend is how everything works.

Frontend is the part of the website users can see and interact with such as the graphical user interface (GUI) and the command line including the design, navigating menus, texts, images, videos, etc. Backend, on the contrary, is the part of the website users cannot see and interact with.

The visual aspects of the website that can be seen and experienced by users are frontend. On the other hand, everything that happens on the background can be attributed to the backend.

Languages used for front end are HTML, CSS, Javascript while those used for backend include Java, Ruby, Python, .Net .
