What does a Section component do in UI design?

The Section component in UI design plays a crucial role in organizing and structuring the interface within Pega applications. It groups work information and functionality by context and purpose, enabling developers to create a coherent and user-friendly experience. By utilizing Sections, designers can encapsulate related UI elements, such as fields, buttons, and links, ensuring that they are logically presented to the user according to the specific task or topic at hand.

This grouping enhances the application's usability, making it easier for users to understand and interact with the displayed information. Sections also facilitate the application’s maintainability by allowing developers to manage related elements collectively rather than individually.

In contrast, other options focus on specific functions or elements that do not encompass the broader organizational purpose of Sections. While styling elements, displaying individual UI elements, and facilitating data entry are essential aspects of UI design, they do not define the overarching purpose of a Section, which is to provide a contextual grouping of related functionalities and information.
