This module creates a list of terms, automatically selecting the most appropriate way to display it. It should not be used directly in entries, but in templates such as {{derived terms}} and {{related terms}}.

The current implementation displays a regular bulleted list if there are not more than 8 items and there are no nested items, and displays a collapsible box with up to four columns otherwise. This behavior may change over time. It would be desirable to take user preference and screen size into consideration.
