Internet resources are here, we use them.
When it did not existed, we used simpler technologies: A good book was enough to code a 1970/1980' microprocessor, or in C language (for example thanks to "The C language" of Ritchie and Kernighan).
Even 20 years ago, it was possible to code with a small desktop documentation on Internet standards. HTML4 [0] (~2000) was something simple to code, and as you know coding a TCP socket is something really trivial.
