1972 The program “hello, world” appears for the first time in The C Programming Language book by Brian Kernighan and Dennis Ritchie as an example to teach the C language.

1980s “Hello World!” becomes popular as the standard in teaching many new programming languages, used in manuals, tutorials, and courses.

1990s With the software development boom and the rise of new languages (Java, Python, JavaScript), “Hello World!” remains the classic example to learn and test environments.

2000s and beyond “Hello World!” stays relevant not only as an introductory exercise but also as a cultural symbol in the developer community, appearing in conferences, memes, and educational projects.

Today Although there are more complex examples to start with in modern languages or frameworks, “Hello World!” remains the official starting point for many courses and tutorials worldwide.
