display 'initial'
| 'block'
| 'inline'
'initial' Controls the display type
gutterBottom bool false If true, the text will have a bottom margin.
noWrap bool false If true, the text will not wrap, but instead will truncate with a text overflow ellipsis.
Note that text overflow can only happen with block or inline-block level elements (the element needs to have a width in order to overflow).
paragraph bool false If true, the text will have a bottom margin.
variant 'h1'
| 'h2'
| 'h3'
| 'h4'
| 'h5'
| 'h6'
| 'subtitle1'
| 'subtitle2'
| 'body1'
| 'body2'
| 'caption'

variantMapping object { h1: 'h1', h2: 'h2', h3: 'h3', h4: 'h4', h5: 'h5', h6: 'h6', subtitle1: 'h6', subtitle2: 'h6', body1: 'p', body2: 'p',} The component maps the variant prop to a range of different HTML element types. For instance, subtitle1 to <h6>. If you wish to change that mapping, you can provide your own. Alternatively, you can use the component prop.

The ref is forwarded to the root element.

Any other props supplied will be provided to the root element (native element).
