# Dividers

<p class="description">A divider is a thin line that groups content in lists and layouts.</p>

[Dividers](https://material.io/design/components/dividers.html) separate content into clear groups.

## List Dividers

The divider renders as a `<hr>` by default.
You can save rendering this DOM element by using the `divider` property on the `ListItem` component.

## Inset Dividers

The following example demonstrates the `inset` property.
We need to make sure the `Divider` is rendered as a `li` to match the HTML5 specification.
The example shows two ways of achieving this.
