An unordered list is a way to present items without implying order or priority. Key points:

  • Purpose: Group related items where sequence doesn’t matter (features, examples, options).
  • HTML:
      with each item in

    • .
    • Markdown: lines starting with -, , or +.
    • Plain text: bullets (•), hyphens (-), or asterisks ().
  • Best practices:
    • Keep items parallel (same grammatical form).
    • Use short items; if an item needs detail, use a sentence or nested list.
    • Don’t mix ordered/unordered semantics—use ordered lists when sequence matters.
    • Limit nesting depth (1–2 levels) for readability.
  • In HTML, use
      so screen readers announce a list.

    • Provide a clear heading or introductory sentence when context is needed.
  • Use consistent bullet style and spacing.
