List blocks allow you to easily organize your content into a list structure, either by creating a separate block for each section of the list down the page, or creating a smaller list section within your article.
Select the code component with the same number of columns as in the grid system of your post.
You can also adjust background color in the component CSS.
Make sure each section of your list has a uniform structure, in both the content design and in the grammatical format of your header. (e.g., Your headers should all be complete sentences or all start with the same verb conjugation, rather than switching it up throughout.)
Consider how smaller lists within your content can help break up what might be dense paragraphs into easily-digestible content, while also helping provide visual interest on the page by changing up the structure.
Number your lists! The human eye is naturally drawn to numerals in the text because they’re a different shape. Plus, if you tell the reader how many points there are in your list in the title or intro, numbering you list will encourage them to scan or read until the end.
Don’t make every article a list format. For one, your audience will get tired of this structure. Also, not every piece of content makes sense as a list. For instance, a narrative article would be better with a different structure, whereas something with distinct steps or multiple points makes sense as a list.

List-based articles (also sometimes referred to as “listicles”) provide a logical structure to your article, improving content comprehension and making it easier for a reader to scan and quickly understand the high-level information, choosing where they’d like to dig in deeper. Plus, giving your audience a predictable content structure makes the reading experience more enjoyable. that dividing your content into a list helps the reader more easily digest the information because it’s broken into smaller pieces. Similarly, including a list section within your content can help organize certain types of information into a way that’s easier to quickly understand.
