Modules are grouped into two categories: Rotators, grids, and grids. lists

Rotators scroll horizontally to show many items in a single row. They’re best for fitting a lot of content into a small vertical space. Grids show items in a grid pattern. They’re best for making sure items are always visible on the page.
