Usage

Getting the CSS file

You can either download the CSS file from the Releases page, or use a CDN such as JsDelivr:

https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/SebastianAigner/twemoji-amazing/twemoji-amazing.css

Using the CSS classes

<i class="twa twa-face-with-monocle">

Size Options

Like Font-Awesome (and Twemoji-Awesome), emoji sizes can be changed via twa-lg, twa-2x, twa-3x, twa-4x, and twa-5x.

Finding Emojis

  • Twemoji-Amazing uses Emoji.json as its source of codepoints and descriptions.
  • To find an emoji of your liking, check out the official Emoji list. Replace spaces with hyphens to get the class name! (e.g. "film projector" becomes twa-film-projector 📽)

Note for Twemoji-Awesome users: Twemoji-Amazing is designed to be an almost-no-adjustments-needed replacement for twemoji-awesome. However, the naming scheme for twemoji-awesome was based on Emoji Cheat Sheet, which is now outdated. This means some emojis might have changed names.

Running the generator

./gradlew run will generate a fresh version of the twemoji-amazing file in the root directory of the project.
