Responsive Foundation 6.0.0

Hides text in an element visually, but preserves width and height and screen reader visibility. Use this class to hide text when you need a visual representation of the screen reader text, but the text itself isn't desirable to have in your design, such as in a logo. For example, this placeholder is used to hide the text on the BU masterplate and BUMC logo in the footer. In cases where there is no visual component to worry about, %visually-hidden is preferred because it supports right-to-left languages and will be safer if a site is ever translated. Available when $burf-extras is enabled.
