Check the list of apps using it. This one got my attention: https://github.com/sindresorhus/emoj I do use emojipedia.org quite often, so I must admit I find this would be quite useful :D. But the thought of having a framework like React powering this behind the scenes, right on my freaking terminal, makes me think that there's no hope for future generations to keep software development simple, "lean" for the foreseeable future. Imagine using 100MB to search for emojis.
