I'm not even sure i added Unicode 10 emojis 😄

I think we're at Unicode 12 or 13 now? Any way to get support for newer emojis somehow? I see that the twitter font is updated with Unicode 12 support at least, while EmojiOne has been taken over by another company.

sadly it's quite long and boring to add, i want to focus on that first

https://github.com/maoschanz/drawing/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+milestone%3A1.2 seems interesting. I had to remove .0 from that URL to see the list (alternative view).

Could you maybe give us intstructions, on how we could (help) add these character sets, instead?

It seems this is a recurring task, and we in the community can find ways to share the load, and also to automate this in the long run.

[maoschanz]

the instructions are, like "individually copy and paste each character and each of their associated keywords from unicode .org", which isn't worth it in my opinion

i should generate those lists with a serious parsing script. It's easy to find the data as a XML file, so parsing them probably isn't that hard. The difficult part is to end up with the correct format, despite the awful way the code handles all the skin tones and ligatures.

It requires me to seriously focus on this for a full day, maybe i'll do it on march 7th while i'll be on strike

[almereyda]

It sounds like you already have identified an implementation vector, which is good to hear. If you wanted to ask for sponsorship some time (comradery.co, liberapay, buymeacoffee, opencollective, github sponsors, …), please let us know.

Good luck with fighting for your labour rights and adequate payment during the strike.

Hello,

How can we help?

For the record, I contributed a feature to Symfony to convert emoji to their github or slack representation :+1: <=> 👍🏼

So I'm a bit used to generate parsing script and using "emoji API"!
