## What it is
emoji-picker-react is a fully customizable emoji picker component for React applications, written in TypeScript. It supports multiple emoji styles (Apple, Google, Facebook, Twitter, Native), dark mode, reactions mode, custom image-based emojis, and dozens of languages.

## Use cases
- add an emoji picker to a react chat app
- let users react to messages with emojis
- add emoji selection to a comment box
- support custom image-based emojis in a picker
- build a multilingual emoji picker with search
- add emoji picker with dark mode support

## When to choose
- you need a drop-in, zero-config emoji picker for a React app
- you want reactions-style emoji picking for chat or social features
- you need multi-language emoji search and custom emoji support

## When to avoid
- your project does not use React
- you need a framework-agnostic vanilla JS picker
- you need emoji parsing or conversion rather than a picker UI
