:boom: Use Twitter's emoji api to fix emoji in Chrome

✨twemojify✨

We all know emoji doesn't work in Chrome, and that bug is assigned to me, and I don't know how to fix it, and I really like emoji. So I made some THINGS that use Twitter's new open source emoji api and fix the Internet. Ok? Ok. 🎉

There are two things you can use. I recommend the extension for an out-of-sight-out-of-mind emoji immersive experience.

A Chrome extension

Before you panic: yes, the extension uses * permissions. This is because you want emoji always, right?

Install twemojify from Google Chrome Webstore: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/twemojify/bpolpdilcnncipnflhmniemhplkajgio

or

0. Clone this repo somewhere
1. Go to chrome://extensions
2. Check Developer mode and click on Load unpacked extension
3. Select the extension folder in the repo you just cloned.
4. Go to the emoji wikipedia page and cry with joy.

A bookmarklet

Create a bookmark and set its url to:

javascript:var i,s,ss=['//twemoji.maxcdn.com/twemoji.min.js','//rawgit.com/notwaldorf/twemojify/master/bookmarklet/twemojify.js'];for(i=0;i!=ss.length;i++){s=document.createElement('script');s.src=ss[i];document.body.appendChild(s);}void(0);

Any time you feel a website is lacking the emoji you deserve, click the bookmarklet and make magic happen. Or just use the extension instead.
