Android material Chips, how to use them, which class is this?

Question

I would like to display words in a way like a Tag Cloud looks. For this android material chips would be the perfect choice for me, but I can't find anywhere in the docs how to use them.

It is mentioned in the design guidelines only: https://www.google.com/design/spec/components/chips.html

Where could I find more info about it? Thanks!

A built-in component does not exist. You have to create it yourself or use some library like this https://github.com/klinker41/android-chips
