A Python-based build tool that packages Apple's Color Emoji designs as TTF fonts for Linux, Windows, and the web. It produces distro packages, a Segoe UI Emoji replacement for Windows, and a web font build with GSUB shaping and @font-face CSS.

Use cases

  • get apple emoji on linux
  • replace segoe ui emoji on windows
  • use apple emojis on my website
  • install apple color emoji font on ubuntu
  • emoji font for web with @font-face
  • make linux look like macos emojis

When to choose

  • you want Apple's emoji style on Linux or Windows
  • you need a web-ready emoji font with unicode-range splitting
  • you want distro-native packages (deb/rpm/arch)

When to avoid

  • licensing of Apple assets is a concern for your use
  • you rely on Qt apps that mishandle color fonts
  • you need guaranteed emoji rendering across all toolkits
