If you want to create your own UI page, you need to use Jelly script. Its scripting language created by ServiceNow, which uses it to process and render UI page.

In Jelly, you can create multiple controls specific to jelly, use multiple conditional expressions etc. You can check below link to find various tags and other uses in jelly.

Suppose, if you are used to.NET, while creating aspx page design, you use mixture of HTML and ASP tags. If you are used to JAVA, in JSP,   you use mixture of JSP tags and HTML elements.

Hi Am,

Until recently, Jelly was the main templating language that all ServiceNow forms and lists were built on. This has largely been replaced with AngularJS. However, Jelly is still used in a number of locations.

You can build your own custom interfaces using UI macros and UI pages, and even custom content blocks in the CMS using Jelly.

See the references given by the others for some good tutorials. I happen to know one of the guys in those videos.
