As of 2013, Google Chrome has rivaled IE in market share, with Firefox close behind. Here, we take a deep dive into the history of web designand how it will continue to evolve. With Internet Explorer challenging Netscape, Netscape held victory at first, but steadily lost its grip as the years progressed.Īfter Internet Explorer won the first Browser War, other browsers began to challenge IE. As Mosaic left the market, Internet Explorer (IE) entered as a challenger to Netscape's crown, and thus the first browser war began. However, Mosaic (a browser launched in January 1993) gained enough market share to provide enough momentum for the Browser Wars, not by involving itself in it as a competitor, but by having a spin-off browser by the name of Netscape spawn off of Mosaic's success and dominate the market where Mosaic left off. It made the 'Navigator' Web browser, which once commanded more than 70 percent of the market. That action kick-started the creation of other web browsers, most of which didn't last long in the market. Netscape for a time in the mid-1990s was the Internets biggest name. The Internet became available to a public audience in the early 1990s when CERN employees launched the WorldWideWeb browser, (later renamed to Nexus).
