Intro/Context:

Web Content structures are made of fields whose values can be used in the context of template creation.

A developer can leverage the power of freemarker template to create: Conditional blocks, iterations, assignments, string and arithmetic operations and formatting, macros and functions, including other templates, escaping by default (optional), and many more.

However, right now we don't provide a no-code way to display and render those values.

It's also worth noting that it's also possible to nest fields, in which case if the parent field is marked as repeatable, the whole set of fields can be repeated. This is a more complex case where each repeated set of fields really behave as a collection of objects.

Finally, this can be applied to other information items (not only web content) for common field types such as tags, categories, navigations, and more.

The goal of this Epic is to allow to visually create the display for any information items leveraging Fragments.
