Divider

A divider is a thin line that groups content in lists and layouts.

Dividers separate content into clear groups.

List Dividers

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

HTML5 Specification

In a list, you should ensure the Divider is rendered as an <li> to match the HTML5 specification. The examples below show two ways of achieving this.
