react-apple-emojis

Apple emojis for React as images.

The package has a full list of emojis included in it. If you want your build to be lighter you can use your own list and use tree-shaking to reduce your bundle size.

Installation

npm install --save react-apple-emojis

or

yarn add react-apple-emojis

Usage

import { EmojiProvider, Emoji } from "react-apple-emojis"
import emojiData from "react-apple-emojis/src/data.json"

function App() {
  return (
    <EmojiProvider data={emojiData}>
      <Emoji name="red-heart" />
      <Emoji name="smiling-face-with-hearts" width={16} />
    </EmojiProvider>
  )

The Emoji component renders to an img tag. So pass any prop you would normally pass to an img.

The complete list of names can be found on Emojipedia. Just click on an emoji and look at the browser's URL to find its name.
