Use html lists to group content and style it to match your design, just be sure you’re using the right kind of list.

HTML lists are essential for organizing and presenting data on a web page. There are three main types: ordered, unordered, and description lists.
Ordered lists use numbers or other characters to order the items. The type attribute allows customization, while start and reversed attributes change the starting position and order.
Unordered lists group related items without a specific order. The bullet style can be customized using CSS.
