Sections
Notes:
Sections are the top level grouping mechanism in documents, think of them as containers for a set of default content and blocks. Learn more about the Document Structure here.
Sections are separated by “Horizontal Rules” or — to group certain elements of a page together. There may be both semantic and design reasons to group content together, a simple case could be that a section of a page has a different background color.
Technically a section just introduces a <div>
wrapper in the markup delivered around all the blocks and default content contained in the section.

Code:
In most cases generic sections don’t have much styling code beyond project specific box layout (eg. margins
, padding
, max-width
) and are sometimes augmented with section metadata to control styling (often background colors or images).
