Section

Sections sit at the top level of a form definition.

An example section might look something like this:

class Form::Sales::Sections::TenancyAndProperty < ::Form::Section
  def initialize(id, hsh, form)
    super
    @id = "tenancy_and_property"
    @label =  "Property and tenancy information"
    @description = ""
    @subsections = [
      Form::Sales::Subsections::PropertyInformation.new(nil, nil, self),
      Form::Sales::Subsections::TenancyInformation.new(nil, nil, self)
    ]
  end
end

In the above example the section id would be tenancy_and_property and its subsections would be PropertyInformation and TenancyInformation.

The label contains the text that users will see for that section in the task list page of a lettings log.

Sections can contain one or more subsections.
