  <Text fontSize="xs">(xs) In love with React & Next</Text>
</Stack>

Truncate text#

Pass the isTruncated prop to render an ellipsis when the text exceeds the width of the viewport or maxWidth prop.

<Text color="gray.500" isTruncated>
  Lorem ipsum is placeholder text commonly used in the graphic, print, and
  publishing industries for previewing layouts and visual mockups.
</Text>

<Text color="gray.500" isTruncated>
  Lorem ipsum is placeholder text commonly used in the graphic, print, and
  publishing industries for previewing layouts and visual mockups.
</Text>

Likewise, if you'd like to truncate the text after a specific number of lines, pass the noOfLines prop and set it to the desired no of lines.

Pro Tip 💡: You can also apply noOfLines responsively.

// Basic version
<Text noOfLines={2}>
  "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" is an English-language pangram—a
  sentence that contains all of the letters of the English alphabet. Owing to
  its existence, Chakra was created.
</Text>
// Responsive version
<Text noOfLines={[1, 2, 3]}>

  its existence, Chakra was created.

Override style#

You can change the entire style of the text via props. For example, to change the font size, pass the fontSize prop. No need to write css or styled().

<Text fontSize="50px" color="tomato">
  I'm using a custom font-size value for this text
</Text>

<Text fontSize="50px" color="tomato">
  I'm using a custom font-size value for this text
</Text>

To override the element that gets rendered, pass the as prop. Use Inspect Element to see the element that gets rendered in html.
