HTML Lists & Organization

Organizing content makes it readable. HTML lists allow you to group related items, create rankings, and build navigation menus.

Unordered Lists

The <ul> tag is used when the order of items does not matter. Think of bullet points. Each item inside must be wrapped in an li (list item) tag.

Ordered Lists

The <ol> tag implies sequence. Steps in a recipe, directions, or a high score list. Browsers automatically number these items for you.

Nesting

You can put a list inside another list to create a hierarchy. To do this correctly, the child list (ul or ol) must be placed inside an <li> tag of the parent list.
