The Create a Word Cloud Tool analyzes your input text and generates a visual cloud where each word’s size reflects its frequency. It offers customizable options like ignoring stopwords, displaying counts, setting a minimum word length, and choosing a sort order. The resulting cloud is rendered in real time and can be exported as a PNG image.
How to Use:
- Paste your text into the input box or import a
.txtfile using the Choose File button. - Choose how to sort the cloud:
- Sort by frequency: largest words appear first
- Alphabetical: A–Z order
- Random: shuffled appearance
- Use the toggle settings to:
- Ignore common stopwords (e.g., “the”, “and”)
- Show the count next to each word
- Filter by minimum word length
- View the word cloud instantly in the canvas on the right.
- Click Download as PNG to save the image.
- Use the Clear All button if implemented to reset and start again.
Example:
Input:
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. The quick dog was not amused.
Output (Frequency sort, stopwords ignored, counts shown): A canvas-based visual showing:
- quick (2)
- dog (2)
- brown, fox, jumps, lazy, amused, not, over, was (1 each) Sized proportionally based on frequency.
Common Use Cases:
This tool is useful for creating word frequency visualizations from essays, documents, speeches, or survey data. It helps identify keyword density, generate infographics, or create stylized visuals for reports and presentations. The built-in export and customization make it flexible for both analytical and creative applications.
Useful Tools & Suggestions:
If you’re building a word cloud, Find Top Words in Text helps you zero in on which words actually matter before you generate anything. And once you’ve narrowed things down, Tokenize Text makes it easy to break your input into clean, individual words ready for visualizing.
