Here's a writeup on suggester:
https://lucidworks.com/blog/2015/03/04/solr-suggester/
The biggest difference is that spellcheck returns individual _terms_
whereas suggesters can return entire fields.
Neither are "a function of the UI" any more than searching is a
function of the UI. In both cases you have to do something
user-friendly with the return.
Best,
Erick
