What does the component do?
Displays hierarchically structured data in a tree structure.
When should the component be used?
To display and select elements in a hierarchical structure.
Rules
When using a tree as a navigation component, it makes sense not to use too many hierarchy levels (recommendation max. 3).
When using an tree to display data structures (e.g. a dossier, analogous to a file browser), it depends on the application how many hierarchy levels are needed.
