Google's Noto Emoji

Downloading

In order to use Google's Noto Emoji, you need to have a folder containing all the emoji PNGs with their codepoints as names. It can be whatever size (512, 128, 72, etc.) you want.

A good source of the complete emoji PNGs is from Google's Noto Emoji GitHub.

1. Download the directory you want by using the download-directory tool.
2. Input https://github.com/googlefonts/noto-emoji/tree/main/png/512 into the text field.
3. Export the downloaded file into a folder.

Then go to config.json and fill the emojis_dir with the path to the emojis folder. Don't forget to escape the backslashes.

Using It

When you're prompted for an emoji character, simply press WINDOWS + . to open the emoji popup, and input one emoji. Or you can copy-paste it from the internet.

Then press Enter.
