A JavaScript library that converts emoji from Unicode code points or colon-sequences (like :smile:) into platform-appropriate output such as native characters, CSS-styled spans, images, or text. It works in both the browser and Node.js.
Use cases
- display emoji consistently across older browsers and devices
- convert :smile: colon sequences to unicode emoji
- render emoji as images or CSS spans in the browser
- normalize emoji between legacy Softbank/Google and unified encodings
- strip or convert emoji to text in Node.js
When to choose
- you need emoji rendering that works on older devices or in browsers
- you need to convert between emoji encodings (colons, unicode, legacy formats)
- you want a lightweight, dependency-free emoji conversion library
When to avoid
- you need an emoji picker or input UI
- you need emoji data/search/metadata rather than conversion
- your target platforms all support native emoji rendering
