Emoji version 11+

[emilbruckner]

Are there any plans for adding newer Emojis?
Where are they pulled in from?

Our Emoji data provider isn’t supporting Emoji 11 yet, see iamcal/emoji-data#146

Even if they did, another current blocker for us is that EmojiOne has been removed from emoji-data, see iamcal/emoji-data#142 (+ #262). From what I see when spotting EmojiMart in the wild, EmojiOne seems to be the go-to set used. We’d need to find a way to keep supporting EmojiOne.

I think removing EmojiOne in a major release would be reasonable.

FWIW, I am using native emoji in Pinafore, and Mastodon is using Twemoji. (And both projects are using all.json.)

Upstream i.e. emoji-data, merged iamcal/emoji-data#152, so they support Emoji v11 now. (no release yet, however)

Is there any plan for a release? @nolanlawson

[lincolndbryant]

Looks like this is now released in [email protected] here, can we bump?

[rugk]

Any news, @nolanlawson? It may really just need bumping…

[rugk]

Still no feedback? So we are still stuck on v10 emojis here… 🤔

[EtienneLem]

As a matter of fact I looked into that yesterday, but emoji-datasource still hasn’t released to NPM the “new” emojis. We rely on that for the hosted spritesheets. I’ll look into publishing a fork.

[rugk]

Maybe it is time to look for alternatives: #384

v5.0.0 of emoji-data has been released!

Now we should have up-to-date emojis! 😃 (just update your dependencies 😄)

[rugk]

@nolanlawson Any news? 😃

[rugk]

Another month later? Soon Unicode 13 will be released... 😆

Emoji 12.1 now available in v3.0.0
