emoj is a Node.js command-line tool that finds relevant emoji for a given text query using a local emoji database and neural matching. It supports live interactive search, clipboard copying, and skin tone selection.
Use cases
- find emoji matching a phrase from the terminal
- copy an emoji to clipboard from the command line
- live search for emoji while typing
- set a default emoji skin tone
- quickly look up emoji for commit messages or chat
When to choose
- you want fast, offline emoji lookup on macOS or Linux
- you prefer terminal tools over emoji pickers
- you want to pipe or script emoji selection
When to avoid
- you are on Windows, where it doesn't work well
- you need a GUI emoji picker
- you need an emoji API or library for embedding in apps
