Truncate string in Laravel blade templates

To truncate a string in a Laravel blade template, you can use the str_limit function. This function is provided by Laravel and is designed to truncate strings. Here is an example of how you can use it:

{{ str_limit($string, $limit) }}

This will truncate the string to the specified number of characters and append an ellipsis (...) to the end of the string. If you do not want the ellipsis to be appended, you can pass a third argument as ''.

{{ str_limit($string, $limit, '') }}

If you want to truncate the string to the nearest word, you can pass a fourth argument as true.

{{ str_limit($string, $limit, '', true) }}

This will truncate the string to the nearest whole word that is less than or equal to the specified number of characters.
