react-emojify-image uses ES2015+ import/export syntax, and other features. Meaning, you have to use a bundler of some sort along with the package, but nowadays who doesn't?

FAQ

• How can I load other emojis?

  • Simple! you can use import { EmojifyImageCustom } from 'react-emojify-image'. It's the same thing but it also has an emojis prop which is an array of strings. This serves as the list of emojis to use when reconstructing the image.

• This package is really big! can you make it smaller?

  • Well, this concerns the last question. You can supply a different set of emojis to use. Also, this was built in a way that tree-shaking can do it's magic. if you'll load EmojifyImageCustom you won't get the entire list of predefined emojis, making this rather small.

• What are the supported browsers on this thing?

  • Chrome and Firefox. Unfortunately Safari doesn't support ImageBitmap which is used here as a base class to create all image types. Maybe later support for other browsers will be added.

• Hmmm... but why?

  • Why not?
