Paul tells us (1 Corinthians 15:3-8) that Jesus was seen by Cephas (Peter), then the twelve, then by more than 500, most of whom were still alive, then by James and all the apostles, and finally by himself. Reference to the "twelve" and "all the apostles" means that, for Paul, they were two different groups.
Mark's Gospel originally ended at verse 16:8 with the young man telling the women that Jesus was risen and they fled, telling no one, and therefore no one actually saw the resurrected Jesus. Verses 16:9-20, now known as the 'Long Ending', were added to the Gospel at a later stage, to provide two brief resurrection appearances, with Mary Magdalene the first to see him, followed by the eleven at a meal.
The next gospel to be written was Matthew, which says that Jesus appeared to the two women, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary, as they returned to tell the disciples.
Luke says that the risen Jesus first appeared to two men on the road to Emmaeus. One man was named Cleopas and the other may have been Peter. Jesus appeared to the eleven disciples the same evening.
John says that Jesus first appeared to Mary Magdalene near the tomb, when she thought that he was the gardener. That evening he appeared to ten of the apostles at a meal.
