This CSS tutorial will explore the art of truncating text in web design using CSS ellipsis. Have you ever encountered long strings of text that disrupt the layout of your website? CSS provides a powerful solution with the `text-overflow` property, allowing you to add ellipsis and indicate hidden content.

We'll dive deep into how `text-overflow` works, its relationship with other CSS properties like `overflow` and `white-space`, and how it enables single-line text truncation. We'll also uncover the secrets of truncating multi-line text using a combination of CSS properties, including the elusive `-webkit-line-clamp`.
