Example
The cloud at the top of this page is made from 2,000 reviews. WordCloud+ finds phrases as well as single words, so “true to size”, “love this dress” and “fits perfectly” show up as ideas rather than scattered words.
2,000 reviews from the Women’s E-Commerce Clothing Reviews dataset (CC0), with default settings and phrases of up to four words. See the full example or learn how phrases work.
