What is the difference between <ol>, <ul>, and <dl>?

Short answer: <ol> = Ordered List (numbered) <ul> = Unordered List (bulleted) <dl> = Description List (term–definition pairs) Example: <ol> <li>HTML</li> <li>CSS</li> </ol> <ul> <li>Apple</li> <li>Banana</li> </ul> Follow me on LinkedIn: <dl> <dt>HTML</dt> <dd>HyperText Markup Language</dd> </dl> Key Takeaway: Choose list type based on how you want to present data.

Real-world example (ShopNest)

ShopNest’s browser cart uses modern JavaScript: fetch APIs with async/await, modules, and clear error handling.

  3. Trade-off — when you would not use it.
