Welcome to the Lists chapter of our HTML course. This chapter focuses on the two types of HTML lists - ordered and unordered. Both lists are used to present information on webpages.
Creating these lists is pretty straightforward and involves more or less the same process, except for a few minor differences.
Let's look at these two HTML lists and how to create them.

Hey Michal!
In the context of Elementor, there is very rarely a good reason why you would want to use a description list. If you want to be very semantically precise, you would use them while writing a glossary or similar. Thing is however, the HTML markup quality in Elementor is already way below "semantically ideal", so really at this point it matters little if you use a description list, or just a normal list, or something like the accordion element.
Tags and HTML elements are essentially synonyms. See the first part of the Basic Tags chapter.
