Add Unicode 9.0 and Emoji 4.0

Crissov opened this issue · 0 comments

Unicode 9.0 added several emojis that respond to Fitzpatrick modifiers (even if Apple only supports them in betas as of November 2016), e.g. 🤴 Prince and 🤷 Shrug.

Emoji 4.0 (UTR #51) adds lots of ZWJ sequences for professions and genders, most of which have a skin tone.

A single dropdown selection list may be inappropriate for such a large number of characters., though.

PS: It seems that util.py already includes at least the new characters from Unicode 9.0, but the web interface at emoji-we.com (i.e. index.html) doesn’t yet.
