ul""is an unordered list that starts at being marked and listed at an indented position away from the border. It's as if you individually pressed the Tab button for each item on the list. A "div" would mark and list the same list at the border, meaning the list and it's marks will be aligned with the left borders of the div it is in

They're just tags. There's zero difference whatsoever between them DOM-wise; the only difference is in the rendering (CSS, which you can customize either way) and the meaning (semantics).

If you have a list of things, use a <ul>.
