create-canvas	Function	*	Creates a new Canvas instance.
create-worker	Function	*	Creates a new Worker instance.
enter-animation	[Object, String]	*	The enter animation.
font-family	[String, Function]	'serif'	The default font family for each word.
font-size-ratio	Number	0	The font size ratio between the words. For example, if the value is 5, then the largest word will be 5 times larger than the smallest one. The value 5 has the same effect as the value 1/5.
font-style	[String, Function]	'normal'	The default font style for each word.
font-variant	[String, Function]	'normal'	The default font variant for each word.
font-weight	[String, Function]	'normal'	The default font weight for each word.

words	Array	[]	The words to place into the cloud. A value of the array could be either an object, an array or a string. If the value is an object, it will be resolved to {text, weight, rotation, rotationUnit, fontFamily, fontStyle, fontVariant, fontWeight, color}. If the value is an array, it will be resolved to [text, weight]. If the value is a string, it will be resolved to text.

let enterAnimation = {opacity: 0};
let leaveAnimation = {opacity: 0};

---

Make more complex animations.

let enterAnimation = {
  opacity: 0,
  transform: 'scale3d(0.3,0.3,0.3)'
};

---

Use classes for CSS animations.

let enterAnimation = 'animated bounceIn';
let leaveAnimation = 'animated hinge';

---

let createCanvas = function() {
  return document.createElement('canvas');
};

---

let loadFont = function(fontFamily, fontStyle, fontWeight, text) {
  return document.fonts.load([fontStyle, fontWeight, '1px', fontFamily].join(' '), text);
};

---

Provide custom loadFont function to support older browsers.

import FontFaceObserver from 'fontfaceobserver';

let loadFont = function(family, style, weight, text) {
  return (new FontFaceObserver(family, {style, weight})).load(text);
};

---

let createWorker = function(code) {
  return new Worker(URL.createObjectURL(new Blob([code])));
};
