As far as I can see, that's not what this does. The SVG this creates simply includes the emoji codepoint as a text element with a large font size. So what the user sees will still be entirely dependent on their local font.
If you want a consistent look across devices and browsers, you need an actual SVG graphic, not an SVG that renders a glyph from your default emoji font.

- misterremote 6y agoYep! Same here. I'm using emojis as icons on my website (https://remotehunt.com https://remotehunt.com) and I don't like that my icons look different on different platforms. But I haven't found an icon lib that I like as much as emojis. What's the idea behind this tool then? Name implies it's for using emojis as icons, but I can do that anyways without the <svg>?
