Displaying Country Flags in React: Emojis vs SVG
2 projects | dev.to | 6 Sep 2023

The CountryFlag component receives the same code property as our emoji component. Yet, it also accepts an optional path to hosted SVG files. I employ a NextJS app, therefore I store all flags in /images/flags within the public folder. I located these flags in the flag-icons GitHub repo and copied them to my project.

Is this still true? I want to use Noto [Color] Emoji for font.name-list.emoji in about:config.

If file size is a concern and you intend to use Noto Color Emoji strictly only in Firefox, you may try the Noto-COLRv1-emojicompat.ttf from https://github.com/googlefonts/noto-emoji/tree/main/fonts (5MB).

Is there any way to replace Windows 11 emojis with iOS?

It’s probably easier to just use the Noto Emojis instead of trying to convert the format Apple uses to something Windows can understand.

Noto Sans Color Emoji Font
1 project | /r/kde | 5 Feb 2022

I am looking for a Noto Sans font containing all the color emojis. I want to use it for the user interface because Whatsapp/Signal notifications are full with non printable emoji characters with the default Noto Sans font. I found https://github.com/googlefonts/noto-emoji but for some reason the spaces are way too wide so it is not usable. Is there any other good font which can be used for the user interface and contains all (or most) color emojis?
