Create visually weighted word clouds from text input with customizable shapes, fonts, and color schemes.
You paste or type text, and each distinct word is sized according to how often it occurs, then packed together into the chosen outline (rectangle, circle, or a custom shape) using the font, palette, and color scheme you pick. What trips people up most: word size reflects relative frequency within your own input, not any external importance score, so a 400-word paragraph with one word repeated 5 times will look very different from a 4,000-word document where that same word appears 5 times.
A concrete input and expected output from the current implementation.
Input
apple banana apple cherry apple banana
Expected output
apple rendered largest (count 3), banana at medium size (count 2), cherry smallest (count 1)
The tool counts occurrences of each distinct word after merging case variants, and maps count directly to relative font size, so the word appearing three times is drawn largest.
Input text is split into words, case is normalized so 'Apple' and 'apple' count as one term, and duplicates are tallied. Each unique word's tally is scaled against the highest-frequency word in the set to determine its font size, so size is always relative to the rest of your input, never an absolute scale.
Once sizes are set, words are placed to fill the selected outline, largest first, fitting smaller words into the remaining space around them. The font family and color scheme you choose apply per word, either cycling through a palette or mapping to size, while the shape option constrains where words can be drawn.
Going by how this tool builds the cloud, it splits your input into words, normalizes case, and tallies every token it finds, with no separate stopword-removal step in that process. So common words are sized by raw frequency the same as any other word: if 'the' or 'and' occur often in your input, they will render large right alongside your content words. If you don't want them in the cloud, strip them from your input text before generating.
No. The color scheme you select is applied per word by cycling through the chosen palette or by mapping color to that word's size band, not by letting you pin a specific color to a specific word. To change how a word is colored, your only lever is picking a different color scheme or shifting that word's frequency (and therefore its size band) in the input text.
