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.
