# heading.section

Title of a major part of a page

Component: [`<Text>`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/components/text.md) · Renders: `<h2>` · Profile: [UI](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/ui.md)

## Example

```tsx
<Text intent="heading.section">The quick brown fox</Text>
```

## Choosing between neighbours

Find the row that describes your element, and use the intent on the right.

| If it is for… | Use |
|---|---|
| Title of a major part of a page | `heading.section` (this page) |
| The title of one item in a list, a panel or a dialog | [`heading.item`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/heading/item.md) |
| A second title on the same page (rather than [`heading.page`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/heading/page.md)) | `heading.section` (this page) |
| The heading itself (rather than [`heading.kicker`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/heading/kicker.md)) | `heading.section` (this page) |

## Connections

Declared in the registry, both directions. Where an intent is used in your own code is something check and the gallery see; this site has no app code.

- Built from: [`typography.heading`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/ui.md#typography-heading), [`tone.default`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/ui.md#tone-default)

## For registry authors

**Starter intents.** These are the intents `prongs add` puts in your registry, shown in this site’s theme. Yours are your own `registry.ts`: rename, restyle and add to them, and see them with `prongs add gallery`.

What this intent is built from and its entry in `components/prongs/registry.ts`. You only need this to change how it looks or to add an intent like it.
