Usage

Use emoji: followed by the name of your emoji (and don’t forget the square brackets). For instance wink:

emoji:wink[]

Additionally you can configure the size of an emoji. By default, the size is 24px but you can use one of the following:

1x (17px)
lg (24px)
2x (34px)
3x (50px)
4x (68px)
5x (85px)

If you want a really big 🐻, use:

emoji:bear[5x]

You can also specify a size in pixel 🎉

emoji:tada[42px]

How ?

This extension is using Twemoji from Twitter. The emoji inline macro is converted into an <image> that points to a remote SVG:

emoji:beetle[]
