Unordered List

Part of the Fundamentals section of Coddy's HTML journey — lesson 12 of 60.

In HTML, an unordered list is a list of items that are not ordered by numbers or letters. Instead, each item is marked with a bullet point.

To create an unordered list, you use the <ul> tag. Each item in the list is defined using the <li> tag.

Here's how you can create an unordered list in HTML:

<ul>
  <li>Item 1</li>
  <li>Item 2</li>
  <li>Item 3</li>
</ul>

In this example, the <ul> tag defines the unordered list, and each <li> tag represents a list item. When displayed in a browser, this code will create a list with bullet points:

  • Item 1
  • Item 2
  • Item 3

Unordered lists are useful for presenting items where the order doesn't matter, such as a list of ingredients or features.

Challenge

Easy

Create an HTML document with an unordered list that contains three items: "Apple", "Banana", and "Orange". (In that order)

Cheat sheet

To create an unordered list use the <ul> tag with <li> tags for each item:

<ul>
  <li>Item 1</li>
  <li>Item 2</li>
  <li>Item 3</li>
</ul>

Unordered lists display items with bullet points and are useful when order doesn't matter.
