A website is a collection of web pages and related content that is published on at least one web
server, goes by the same domain name, and is accessible via that domain name. Google, Facebook,
Amazon, and Wikipedia are a few examples of well-known websites. The World Wide Web is the
collective name for all publicly accessible websites. 1

An information-centric website's goal provides relevant, useful information to a particular user or
demographic so that they can learn something new or gain a deeper understanding of a subject.
These websites focus on more useful information and may include "how to", "tips and tricks," fix-
and-repair instructions," advice, support information, directions, etc.

There are three different website types to cover with the first being:

Web 1.0 - The World Wide Web's initial development is referred to as Web 1.0. In Web 1.0, the vast
majority of users were content consumers and there were very few content creators. Personal
websites were widespread and mostly included static pages maintained on free web hosts or web
servers controlled by ISPs.



Web 1.0 forbids the viewing of ads while browsing websites. Ofoto, another online digital
photography website from Web 1.0, allowed users to store, share, view, and print digital images.
Web 1.0 is a content delivery network (CDN) that allows websites to present the information. As a
personal website, it is usable.



We now move onto Web 2.0 - 2004 Although Tim O'Reilly and Dale Dougherty's First Web 2.0
conference (later known as the Web 2.0 Summit) is credited with popularising the term, Darcy
Danica really came up with it in 1999. Worldwide websites that emphasise user-generated content,
usability, and interoperability for end users are referred to as "Web 2.0." The participative social web
is another name for Web 2.0. It does not mean to change any technical requirements, but rather to
alter the layout and functionality of Web pages. Although the shift is advantageous, it does not seem
that way when the changes take place.



And lastly Web 3.0 with the integration of DLT (a block chain is an example of Distributed Ledger
Technology, or "DLT"), the Web has been transformed into a database that can be used to create
Smart Contracts tailored to the needs of the individual. This is known as "Web 3.0." After a long
period of focusing on the front-end, it allows for the upgrading of the back-end of the web (Web 2.0
has mainly been about AJAX, tagging, and another front-end user-experience innovation). The

, phrase "Web 3.0" is used to denote a number of web usage and interaction evolutions. In this, the
same data or web is shown by services in a variety of ways even though it isn't owned but rather
shared.




Client-side script

A programme that runs within the client browser is referred to as a client-side script. Are quick
programmes that the browser downloads, compiles, and executes. External scripts when they are
requested, are sent from the server to the client. Scripts may also be carried out. According to the
user's action, such as hitting a button. As a result, if a user’s Because of poor computing, such as a
lack of ram, scripts will take a long time to run. webpages load slower as they take longer to
assemble and run on the browser Loaded.

A lot of YouTube is written in hard coded web technologies - HTML, CSS and JavaScript (Google
developed Angular). Then they added some ML functionality, which they did create in Python. And
there’s some Java, TensorFlow and Go in there too, along with some old-fashioned database.

Originally, Amazon.com was a C++ binary called Obidos. In the early days of the Internet, writing
everything in C++ made sense since servers were expensive and not nearly as fast as they are
today, and things like Python, Ruby, etc. weren't nearly as mature.

To make it easier to make webpages without writing tons of string manipulation code in C++,
the company developed a simple in-house templating system called “catsubst” (cat like the
Unix program, subs like substitution).

Over time, the set of features on the Amazon website grew and the Obidos codebase began to
Sprawl. The binary was multiple gigabytes and took a very long time to compile. So, in the early-
mid 2000s, the company began to switch over to Gurupa.

Currently in 2022 YouTube website is written in a few different languages However, C++ was used
for the most important and core function of this app – video processing. Managing this many data is
extremely difficult when your site has approximately between 1 to 2 billion monthly users. I think it
speaks for itself. C++ is a secret weapon of the biggest companies in the world. And I think we can
even say that they’re so successful because of C++
