## Documentation

### Overview

The divider renders as an `<hr>` by default. It is possible to make the divider render as an `li` or a `div` to match the HTML5 specification and context of the divider.

| -- | -- | -- |
| `role="separator"` | `li.pf-v5-c-divider`, `div.pf-v5-c-divider` | Indicates that the separator is a separator. |
