moreWithin

moreWithin is a software library designed to help developers manage and display content that exceeds a certain limit, often used for text excerpts or lists. Its primary function is to truncate content after a specified number of characters or lines and provide a mechanism to reveal the full content, typically through a "read more" or "show more" toggle. This approach enhances user experience by preventing overwhelming displays of information on interfaces like web pages or mobile applications.

The library usually works by taking an initial piece of content and applying a limit. If the content exceeds this limit, a truncated version is shown along with a control element. Clicking or tapping this control element then expands the content to its original, full length. This expansion can be animated for a smoother visual transition.

Key features often associated with moreWithin include the ability to customize the truncation limit (character count or line count), define the text for the expand/collapse toggles (e.g., "Read More," "Show Less"), and control the animation speed or style. It is typically implemented with JavaScript and is designed to be lightweight and easy to integrate into existing projects. The goal is to improve readability and navigation without sacrificing access to complete information.
