T6 CSS

Here are the key points about the list-style-type property: - It controls the type of bullet/numbering for ordered and unordered lists. - Common values include: disc, circle, square for unordered lists and decimal, lower-alpha, upper-roman for ordered lists. - It allows customization of the bullet/numbering style without affecting other list properties like indentation. - It works together with the list-style shorthand property which also controls image bullets and positioning. So in summary, the list-style-type property specifically controls the type of bullet/numbering symbol/character used for lists.
