list-style-type

Utilities for controlling the marker style of a list.

ClassStyles
list-disc
list-style-type: disc;

| | list-decimal |

list-style-type: decimal;

| | list-none |

list-style-type: none;

| | list-(<custom-property>) |

list-style-type: var(<custom-property>);

| | list-[<value>] |

list-style-type: <value>;

|

Use utilities like list-disc and list-decimal to control the style of the markers in a list:

list-disc

list-decimal

list-none

<ul class="list-disc">  <li>Now this is a story all about how, my life got flipped-turned upside down</li>  <!-- ... --></ul><ol class="list-decimal">  <li>Now this is a story all about how, my life got flipped-turned upside down</li>  <!-- ... --></ol><ul class="list-none">  <li>Now this is a story all about how, my life got flipped-turned upside down</li>  <!-- ... --></ul>

Use the list-[<value>] syntax to set the marker based on a completely custom value:

<ol class="list-[upper-roman] ...">  <!-- ... --></ol>

For CSS variables, you can also use the list-(<custom-property>) syntax:

<ol class="list-(--my-marker) ...">  <!-- ... --></ol>

This is just a shorthand for list-[var(<custom-property>)] that adds the var() function for you automatically.

Prefix a list-style-type utility with a breakpoint variant like md: to only apply the utility at medium screen sizes and above:

<ul class="list-none md:list-disc ...">  <!-- ... --></ul>

Learn more about using variants in the variants documentation.
