How to write lists inside a markdown table?

Utilizing HTML in markdown

The beauty of Github Flavored Markdown (GFM) is that it supports basic HTML within markdown whereby you can create more intricately designed tables using <ul> and <li> HTML tags:

| Feature     | Details   |
| ----------- | ----------|
| Benefits    | <ul><li>Efficient</li><li>Scalable</li></ul> |

This markdown will produce:

Feature	Details
Benefits	<ul><li>Efficient</li><li>Scalable</li></ul>

Remember, leveraging a mixture of markdown with HTML allows great control over the table aesthetics.

Creating tables using pure HTML

When it comes to dealing with complex table layouts or deep-rooted desire for control over the tables, consider utilizing pure HTML:

<!-- HTML humor: Why do programmers confuse Halloween and Christmas? Because Oct 31 == Dec 25 -->
<table>
  <tr>
    <th>Plan</th>
    <th>Features</th>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>Basic</td>
    <td>
      <ul>
        <li>Feature 1</li>
        <li>Feature 2</li>
      </ul>
    </td>
  </tr>
</table>


With HTML, tags like <table> and <tbody> help you construct organized tables and integrate lists effortlessly using <ul> and <li> tags.

Advanced table structures

With Pandoc's multiline_tables, you can extend markdown and design complex table layouts along with integral list content. It also gives the ability to simulate line breaks with the <br> tag inside table cells.

Panflute or div-table plugins are corkers to experience more advanced features. They can create HTML-like tables within your markdown documents. For example, fenced divs in Pandoc can render HTML-level layouts.

The div-table plugin with bypara=true can treat paragraphs as separate table columns and supports elements like captions and images. Always remember Pandas are great at multi-tasking.
