Emoji Picker With Autocomplete In JavaScript

Preview:

Description:

A simple, convenient emoji picker written in pure JavaScript (ES6) that enables you to select emoji images from an autocomplete dropdown panel while typing emoji keywords.

How to use it:

Import the necessary modules into the document.

<script type='module'>
  import picker from './src/index.js'
  import fetchJSON from './src/fetchJSON.js'
</script>

Prepare your emoji data in a JSON file.

// emoji data
{"100":"?","1234":"?", ...}

Attach the emoji picker to an input field you specify.

<input type='text' class='input'>

fetchJSON('./src/emoji.json').then(emoji => picker('.input', emoji))

Style the emoji picker using your own CSS.
