Section
A page band or a framed stage: the full-width strips and demo grounds a page is built from.
Live demo
Section is the structural strip between the page primitives and the page itself: a padded surface band you lay content across, or a framed stage for showing something off. As a band it carries a tone (transparent (plain), a neutral raise (quiet), or a tint from the full tone roster: any semantic role, accent variant, or named hue) and optional bordered hairlines top and bottom, with a padding rhythm that eases off on narrow screens.
As a stage (variant="stage") it becomes an elevated, accent-tinted frame with an optional corner label: the demo ground this very site sits its live examples in. It owns surface and spacing only; arrange what goes inside with Stack, Cluster, or Grid.

Accessibility
as for the landmark you mean: section (optionally with an aria-label), header, or footer. A plain div stage carries no landmark role, which is usually right for a demo frame. label is plain text in the flow; keep it short, since it reads before the framed content. Code
