Html proper style for tags

HTML-CSS
1

So this may be a dumb question but what is the proper way to close tags
Ex1:

<section>
        <h1>Title</h1>
        <p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipisicing elit. Cupiditate, nobis!</p>
        <ul>
            <li>Cat</li>
            <li>Dog</li>
        </ul>
    </section>

or

<section>
        <h1>Title</h1>
        <p>
            Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipisicing elit. Cupiditate, nobis!
        </p>
        <ul>
            <li>
                Cat
            </li>
            <li>
                Dog
            </li>
        </ul>
</section>

Your first example looks cleaner and resembles the way most of us do it. No questions are stupid! :grinning:

That makes sense I was wondering if there was some standard around it.
