The first web browser ever written was called "WorldWideWeb", and it was created by a man named Tim Berners-Lee. While this was the very first web browser, it was not widely used, and was only available for the NeXT platform.

The first widely-used web browser was Mosaic by Marc Andreessen and Eric Bina at the NCSA at the University of Illinois. The first version was written for X-Windows on Unix, and it was later ported to other operating systems.
