## Description

Minimalist Tag Cloud is a WordPress plugin that allows you to display your website’s
most popular tags, categories or custom taxonomies as a widget or using a shortcode.

 * smallest and largest font sizes
 * font size unit
 * display format (flat / list)

### 󠀁[Great customization!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-customization-6/)󠁿

Very nice little widget. After looking through all the other tag cloud plugins this
is the one I found most flexible. It just needs a bit of styling on the way it displays
on the backend. But it’s not important. It does its job! Thank you very much 😀
