# Summary box

Highlight key information or next steps from a longer page with a summary box.

## Example

```html
<div role="complementary" aria-labelledby="summary-box-heading" class="border border-cyan-20 bg-cyan-5 rounded-sm p-6">
  <div id="summary-box-heading" class="text-xl font-bold">Key information</div>
  <div class="mt-4 prose">
    <ul>
      <li>If you are under 18, you cannot apply.</li>
      <li>You must be a U.S. citizen or permanent resident.</li>
      <li>You must have a valid Social Security number.</li>
    </ul>
  </div>
</div>
```

## Accessibility

* The summary box is a complementary landmark. Its visible heading labels the landmark through `aria-labelledby`.
* Use a heading element inside the heading slot if the title should appear in the page’s heading structure.
