Users can submit a subreddit or Reddit user and generate a wordcloud based on the words they use.\n\n## Technology\n\n- VS Code\n- HTML5\n- CSS3\n- ES6 JavaScript\n- React\n- Git/Github\n\n## Summary\n\nWhat drove me to build this application was my curiosity on the general trend of a subreddit. What better way to display this information than using a wordcloud? There are many wordcloud generators out there but for the most part you have to manually add the text yourself, soo I've decided to make one specifically for Reddit.\n\n[React Wordcloud](https://github.com/chrisrzhou/react-wordcloud/) by Chris Zhou is the right tool for the job. It was pretty simple to setup \u0026 style. Once I got it set up, it was time to bring in Reddit data. When I made a subreddit request through the Reddit API I had to go through several steps to upload the information to the generator (Combining posts into an array, clean up titles, removing punctuation \u0026 sorting). Once I got the generator up and running, I decided to take it a step further \u0026 create a generator for Reddit user comments.\n\nI feel I've fulfilled my dream upon completing this application. I find that subreddits with a consistently sized wordcloud tend to be more original. And on top of commonly used words, you can get a sense of the subreddit's tone based on words used (fun, informative, depressing).\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fjonathanfunk%2Freddit-wordcloud-generator","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fjonathanfunk%2Freddit-wordcloud-generator","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fjonathanfunk%2Freddit-wordcloud-generator/lists"}
