Tailwind CSS is an open-source CSS framework. Unlike other frameworks, like Bootstrap , it does not provide a series of predefined classes for elements such as buttons or tables. Instead, it creates a list of "utility" CSS classes that can be used to style each element by mixing and matching.

' leave out ' [1]), rendered ..., alternatively described as suspension points [2]: 19 /dots, points [2]: 19 /periods of ellipsis, or ellipsis points, [2]: 19 or colloquially, dot-dot-dot, [3] [4] is a punctuation mark consisting of a series of three dots.
In Perl [2] and Raku [3] the 3-character ellipsis is also known as the "yada yada yada" operator and, similarly to its linguistic meaning, serves as a "stand-in" for code to be inserted later. Python3 also allows the 3-character ellipsis to be used as an expressive place-holder for code to be inserted later.
Gapping exists in many languages, but by no means in all of them, and gapping has been studied extensively and is therefore one of the more understood ellipsis mechanisms. [2] Stripping is viewed as a particular manifestation of the gapping mechanism where just one remnant (instead of two or more) appears in the gapped/stripped conjunct.

Ellipsis is the narrative device of omitting a portion of the sequence of events, allowing the reader to fill in the narrative gaps.
