## What it is
A JavaScript dataset that maps emoji characters to lists of human-readable keywords, making emoji searchable in applications. It is distributed via npm and is designed to be combined with unicode-emoji-json, which provides the accompanying emoji metadata.

## Use cases
- find an emoji character by typing a keyword like 'happy' or 'grin'
- build an emoji picker with a search box for a web or desktop app
- get the English keywords associated with a given emoji
- add emoji search to a chat or messaging application
- power fuzzy emoji lookup from user-typed queries in JavaScript

## When to choose
- You need keyword data to make emoji searchable or to build an emoji picker in a JavaScript project
- You want to map free-text user queries to matching emoji characters
- You are pairing emoji keywords with metadata from unicode-emoji-json

## When to avoid
- You need emoji metadata such as grouping, ordering, or skin tone support flags - use unicode-emoji-json instead
- You need emoji rendering, image assets, or conversion between emoji and shortcodes rather than keyword data
- You are not working in a JavaScript or JSON-consumable environment

## Facets

- function: developer-tools, search-engine
