Abstract (Section)

An abstract is a concise overview of an article. The abstract section style can be used in the article document type.

Abstract section syntax

The abstract section style must be set on the first section of the article, as seen in the example below:

= Article Title

[abstract]
== Abstract

Documentation is a distillation of many long adventures.

== Section Title

If you want to style a paragraph or an open block as an abstract, instead of a whole section, see the abstract block style documentation.
