HTML provides a simple way to show unordered lists (bullet lists) or ordered lists (numbered lists).
Unordered Lists
An unordered list is a list of items marked with bullets (typically small black circles). An unordered list starts with the <ul> tag. Each list item starts with the <li> tag.
Ordered Lists
An ordered list is also a list of items. The list items are marked with numbers. An ordered list starts with the <ol> tag. each list item starts with the <li> tag.
Inside a list item you can put paragraphs, line breaks, images, links, other lists, etc.
Definition Lists
Definition lists consist of two parts: a term and a description. To mark up a definition list, you need three HTML elements; a container <dl>, a definition term <dt>, and a definition description <dd>.
Inside a definition-list definition (the <dd> tag) you can put paragraphs, line breaks, images, links, other lists, etc
