EdWordle, a word cloud creator based on Wordle

Description: EdWordle is a tool for creating and editing word clouds based on Wordle technology. The initial word clouds are generated by entering words or a text. Users can then re-font, re-colour, resize, move, rotate, add, and delete words to customise their word clouds. Edwordle is free to play and does not require signing up or having an account.

Evaluation: EdWordle is an easy-to-use, practical, and rich word cloud creator. It has a straightforward and intuitive interface and contains features to modify word clouds regarding their layout, size, colour, font, and more. One of Edwordle’s main benefits is that it allows a “neighbourhood-preserving” editing process, which keeps inserted words at predictable and close locations during and after the editing process.

Cost: Free.
