<ul class="menu">
<li class="menu__item">
<a href="" class="menu__link"></a>
</li>
<li class="menu__item">
<ul class="list"> // can I place this block inside here?
<li class="list__item">
...
</li>
<li class="list__item">
...
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
In this case, I place the block list
inside the element menu__item
.
I wonder, is this legal?
As per this documentation from BEM, we can nest the blocks. I.e. a block can have another block in it. The only condition is that the children blocks should be independent on the parent.
