List Style Position

​

Basic usage

​

Setting the list style position

Control the position of the markers and text indentation in a list using the list-inside and list-outside utilities.

<ul class="list-inside ...">
  <li>5 cups chopped Porcini mushrooms</li>
  <!-- ... -->
</ul>

<ul class="list-outside ...">
  <li>5 cups chopped Porcini mushrooms</li>
  <!-- ... -->
</ul>

​

Applying conditionally

​

Hover, focus, and other states

Tailwind lets you conditionally apply utility classes in different states using variant modifiers. For example, use hover:list-inside to only apply the list-inside utility on hover.

<ul class="list-outside hover:list-inside">
  <!-- ... -->
</ul>

For a complete list of all available state modifiers, check out the Hover, Focus, & Other States documentation.

​

Breakpoints and media queries

You can also use variant modifiers to target media queries like responsive breakpoints, dark mode, prefers-reduced-motion, and more. For example, use md:list-inside to apply the list-inside utility at only medium screen sizes and above.

<ul class="list-outside md:list-inside">
  <!-- ... -->
</ul>
