## Description

This project provides a React component and typography utility designed to dynamically balance text wrapping in headers and titles. Its primary purpose is to prevent single hanging words and eliminate awkward whitespace, maintaining a compact visual appearance across various screen sizes.

The utility functions as a responsive text wrapper that optimizes the visual distribution of text lines to improve the visual hierarchy of web pages. It coordinates text distribution to ensure readability and a polished look for titles without requiring manual line breaks.
