## AI overview

A tutorial video explains how to create lists in Codename One using a more up-to-date approach than the older GUI-builder videos. It discusses lists as a concept and focuses on Box Layout Y and the relevant class.

## Source excerpt

Some of our how do I videos are so old it's embarrassing... This is especially true for some core concepts videos as they were some of the first ones we made. The worst part is that these are probably the most important videos we have as they are viewed by developers completely new to Codename One. We had two videos covering creations of lists and both of them used com.codename1.ui.List with the old GUI builder!
