SharePoint 2013 - Simple Glossary using "HTML Form Web Part"

Introduction At some point you probably thought about incorporating glossary functionality as a part of a larger solution, or perhaps you were simply looking for providing a more intuitive way of filtering hundreds of items within a List or Library. Now there are countless web parts out there that you can either purchase or download from the SharePoint Store free of charge, and they all come with their own set of bells and whistles.
