Word-Safe Truncate
Cap a string at `max_len` chars without splitting a word; append an ellipsis when truncated. Backs off to the last space if cutting mid-word would happen.

TRUNCATE vs DELETE
`DELETE` is logged per-row and respects triggers; `TRUNCATE` deallocates whole pages and resets the table to empty. `TRUNCATE` is much faster on large tables but has caveats (no WHERE, can't be rolled back in some DBs).
TypeScript
Truncate at Word Boundary
Cap a string at `max` characters without splitting a word, appending an ellipsis when truncated. Falls back gracefully if the last word is longer than `max`.
PHP
Truncate Text with Ellipsis (word-safe)
Cleanly truncate a string to a max length without breaking words mid-character. Adds a trailing ellipsis when truncated and never exceeds the requested length including the ellipsis.
JavaScript
Truncate String
Truncates a string to a maximum character length and appends an ellipsis (or custom suffix). The smart version breaks at the last word boundary to avoid cutting in the middle of a word, making truncated text look natural in card previews, notifications, and list views.
