# Text

Render text with typography and truncation options for content, labels, and constrained areas.

We are building SnowUI components into interfaces people can use directly in AI conversations. Conversational UI is still in development; this page demonstrates website usage. Supported chat platforms and component versions will be announced after verification. Generating and using SnowUI interfaces inside AI conversations is completely free. It is not a project, uses no project or developer-seat quota, and requires no SnowUI registration, activation, or paid proof.

Package: `@snowui-design-system/components`. Import: `import { Text } from '@snowui-design-system/components';`. Source fingerprint: `12e06e348032598347999227d1846a76bf9229e62bc461b41de9194a219d152f`.

## Usage choices

Use Text for text semantics, truncation, expansion, and hints. Hover motion is off by default. Ordinary static text can use semantic HTML; choose a motion component for animated values or text transitions.

- tag selects text semantics, lines controls truncation, and more or tooltip provides expansion or a supplemental hint.
- Hover interaction is off by default. stateText can replace copy by state, and parts configures generated Button or Tooltip children.
- With lines=1, shortened visible text retains its complete accessible name, including when used inside a button, link or native label.
