# Lists

> Ordered and unordered lists with nesting and inline formatting support.

## Unordered lists

Use `-` or `*` to create unordered list items:

```markdown theme={null}
- Item 1
- Item 2
- Item 3
```

```markdown theme={null}
* Item 1
* Item 2
* Item 3
```

## Ordered lists

Use numbers followed by a period:

```markdown theme={null}
1. First item
2. Second item
3. Third item
```

The starting number is preserved. If you start with `3.`, the rendered list begins at 3.

## Nested lists

Indent with 2 spaces to create nested lists:

```markdown theme={null}
- Parent Item 1
  - Child Item 1.1
  - Child Item 1.2
    - Grandchild 1.2.1
- Parent Item 2
  - Child Item 2.1
```

Ordered nested lists:

```markdown theme={null}
1. First parent
   1. First child
   2. Second child
2. Second parent
   1. Another child
```

You can mix ordered and unordered lists at different nesting levels:

```markdown theme={null}
1. First item
   - Sub-bullet A
   - Sub-bullet B
2. Second item
   - Sub-bullet C
```

## Inline formatting in lists

List items support all inline formatting:

```markdown theme={null}
- **Bold item**
- *Italic item*
- ~~Strikethrough item~~
- Item with **bold** and *italic* mixed
- Item with a [link](https://example.com)
- Item with `inline code`
- Item referencing @[smith2023, p. 42]
```

<Note>
  Lists do not support extended attributes. Styling is controlled by your document defaults.
