### Control List Counting
By default, an ordered list will start counting from 1. If you want to start counting from a specified number, you can use the `start` attribute
{% code overflow="wrap" lineNumbers="true" %}
```markup
- Coffee
- Tea
- Milk
```
{% endcode %}
### Nested HTML Lists
Lists can be nested (list inside list):
{% code overflow="wrap" lineNumbers="true" %}
```markup
- Coffee
- Tea
- Black tea
- Green tea
- Milk
```
{% endcode %}
