You must have a head tag. It's both syntactically correct and required.
Usage
From here, it's just plug 'n' chug. You can use one of three tags to create a container for the emoji:
<span class="emoji">
(Syntactically correct)<i class="emoji">
<emoji>
Basically, either make a span
or i
with an emoji class or just have a custom emoji
tag.
Where the emoji though?
Check out this page. Find the emoji you want, and inside your tag, place the name of the emoji. For example,
<emoji>hashtag</emoji>
will produce
IMPORTANT NOTE:
You can include only one emoji per container, and there must be no whitespace between each angle bracket and the name of the emoji.
Emoji Options
All emoji have a corresponding smaller version, noted by a prefix sm-. For instance,
<emoji>desktop</emoji>
will produce
while
<emoji>sm-desktop</emoji>
will produce
It's highly recommended you take advantage of this smaller option if you can forgive optimal quality.
You can also specify skin tone for some emoji, based on the Fitzpatrick scale. Applicable emoji have a -d suffix for the default tone, -2 for lightest, -4 for light, -6 for neutral, -8 for dark, and -10 for darkest. E.g.:
<emoji>hand-d</emoji> <emoji>hand-2</emoji> <emoji>hand-4</emoji> <emoji>hand-6</emoji> <emoji>hand-8</emoji> <emoji>hand-10</emoji>
makes
Finally, you can specify a male / female version for applicable emojis with m- and f- prefixes, respectively.
<emoji>m-haircut-d</emoji> <emoji>f-haircut-d</emoji>
will produce a male and female version of the same emoji:
