Prevent long strings of text from breaking your components' layout by using `.text-break` to set `overflow-wrap: break-word` (and `word-break: break-word` for IE & Edge compatibility).
Prevent long strings of text from breaking your components' layout by using `.text-break` to set `word-wrap: break-word`. We use `word-wrap` instead of the more common `overflow-wrap` for wider browser support.
