Messing around with chatGPT’s code generation and had it generate a tag-cloud code using only dataviewjs and standard javascript. Took a bit of fiddling and about 4 hours of work but that is much quicker then I could have done this by hand…
Lists all files and tags, except those in the excluded paths. Determines size and color based on filename, number of tags, and word count (ignoring metadata, code blocks, and latex blocks. It also randomizes the order for good effect. Clicking on a file will open the file, clicking on tags does nothing but could be fixed if you feel like it.

thank you again!) don’t want to do as told. Results from “as it is” stays empty. For investigation I tried to do some changes:
