1. `overflow: hidden` prevents the text from overflowing its dimensions
(for a block, 100% width and auto height).
-2. `text-overflow: ellipsis` makes it so that if the text exceeds its dimensions, it
- will end with an ellipsis.
-3. `width: 400px` ensures the element has a dimension, to know when to get ellipsis
-4. `display: -webkit-box` attribute that allows to work with `line-clamp`
-5. `-webkit-line-clamp: 3` number of lines to be truncated (in this case there will be only 3 visible lines)
