callout-block

A callout block is a block element used to emphasize a paragraph by classifying it into one of several semantic categories such as quotation, info, question, warning, error, success, or idea.

Callout blocks are used to emphasize a paragraph, and classifies them into one of seven semantic categories:

  • Quotation: for quotations, indicated with a >.

  • Info: for information the reader should know, indicated with a (i)>

  • Question: for anticipated and frequently asked questions, indicated with a (?)>

  • Warning: for cautions and warnings, indicated with a (!)>

  • Error: for errors and critical issues, indicated with a (x)>

  • Success: for success messages and positive outcomes, indicated with a (+)>

  • Idea: for ideas and suggestions, indicated with a (*)>

Multiple paragraphs can be included in the callout block as long as there are no newline characters between them (although a newline is of course required to end a paragraph).
