| 44 | +## Project description |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | +With cloudy you can generate so-called word clouds, a kind of visualization that arranges words or |
| 47 | +any other kind of element in a cloud-like pattern. Word clouds are commonly used to visualize the |
| 48 | +frequency of words in texts, but this package will happily arrange anything you give it. |
| 49 | + |
| 50 | + |
| 51 | +## Who this project is for |
| 52 | + |
| 53 | +This project is targeted at document authors looking for a playful way to display big quantities of |
| 54 | +words or similar elements. It is especially suited in situations where the elements to be displayed |
| 55 | +can be weighed (i.e. varied in size) meaningfully. |
| 56 | + |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | +## Project dependencies |
| 59 | + |
| 60 | +All you need to use this project is an installation of [`typst`][typst]. |
| 61 | + |
| 62 | + |
| 63 | +## Usage |
| 64 | + |
| 65 | +Import the package into your document like this: |
| 66 | + |
| 67 | +```typst |
| 68 | +#import "@preview/cloudy:0.1.1" |
| 69 | +``` |
| 70 | + |
| 71 | +Now you can create clouds of whatever content you like: |
| 72 | + |
| 73 | +```typst |
| 74 | +#set page(width: 3cm, height: 3cm) |
| 75 | +#cloudy.cloud(( |
| 76 | + box(inset: 2pt, stroke: red, text(size: 16pt, "Hello")), |
| 77 | + box(inset: 4pt, stroke: green, text(size: 12pt, "Typst")), |
| 78 | + box(inset: 3pt, stroke: blue, text(size: 10pt, "Community!")), |
| 79 | +)) |
| 80 | +``` |
| 81 | + |
| 82 | +And the result looks like this: |
| 83 | + |
| 84 | +![A word cloud saying "Hello Typst Community!" in colored boxes with shuffled order][f0] |
| 85 | + |

| 87 | + |
| 88 | + |
| 89 | +## Additional documentation |
| 90 | + |
| 91 | +**TL;DR**: [Docs for the latest version][g0] |
| 92 | + |
| 93 | +Next to a list of all functions, the documentation also contains a few examples for how to use this |
| 94 | +code. The documentation for a specific version of this package is always attached as asset to [the |
| 95 | +respective release][g1]. |
| 96 | + |
| 97 | +The documentation can be created locally provided you have set up the development environment for |
| 98 | +this project (refer to the [Contributing section][i]). The following command creates a PDF version |
| 99 | +of the docs including references to external sources etc.: |
| 100 | + |
| 101 | +```bash |
| 102 | +bin/make pdf |
| 103 | +``` |
| 104 | + |
| 105 | +More (verified working) examples can be found [in the examples directory][g2]. |
