# Nested Repeater
A nested repeater is a repeater that adds additional data that you want to repeat separately from the parent repeater - inserted into another repeater.
As an example, in the case of a team, the nested repeater could be a "skills" list. Another advantage is that the nested repeater can be styled separately to further personalise your design.
