Emoji Info & Search — Unicode names, codepoints, shortcodes
Search Unicode emoji and view all the details. Covers 1900+ emoji from Unicode 16 (2024), searchable by name, keyword, group, or series (smileys, animals, food, transport, flags…). Click one to see every Unicode codepoint (U+1F600 form), HTML entity (`😀`), CSS escape (`\1F600 `), JS escape (`\u{1F600}`), shortcode (Slack/Discord/GitHub compatible, `:grinning_face:`), Unicode group / subgroup, and related keywords — copy any field with one click. Powered by unicode-emoji-json (MIT) + emojilib (MIT) bundled locally; no network calls.
How to use
Type a name (smile / cat), a keyword (food / happy), or paste the emoji itself to filter the list. You can also narrow by Unicode group (`Smileys & Emotion`, `People & Body`, `Food & Drink`, `Flags`, etc). Click an emoji to see its full detail card: Unicode CLDR name, all codepoints, HTML entity, CSS escape, JS escape, and shortcode (`:smile:` form) — each row has a one-click copy button.
FAQ
- Can I search in Japanese?
- The current index uses English names and keywords (compatible with Slack / Discord / GitHub shortcodes). For Japanese kaomoji (text-art faces like ¯\_(ツ)_/¯), use the kaomoji-search tool instead.
- How are skin-tone modifiers handled?
- The list shows base emoji (no modifier). Emoji that accept skin-tone variants are flagged with a “Supported” badge; append `\u{1F3FB}`–`\u{1F3FF}` (Fitzpatrick 1–6) to apply.
- Why does Slack / Discord / GitHub use a different shortcode?
- We emit the Unicode CLDR slug as the shortcode (e.g. `:grinning_face:`). Some platforms use historical or vendor-specific shortcodes (Slack often shortens to `:smile:`). Check Slack’s emoji palette or GitHub’s emoji cheat sheet if you need a vendor-specific form.
- Does it have the newest emoji (Unicode 17 / 18)?
- Our bundled unicode-emoji-json is Unicode 16 (2024). Emoji added in Unicode 17 or later may not appear.
- Is my query uploaded?
- No. The full emoji dataset is bundled locally. Search, display, and copy all happen inside your browser — no network requests.

Unicode Character Inspector
Break text into individual characters and show each one's code point (U+XXXX), decimal value, general category (letter / number / symbol, etc.), script (Latin / Han / Hiragana, etc.), Unicode block, UTF-8 / UTF-16 byte sequences, and HTML numeric entity. Surrogate-pair emoji, combining marks, zero-width joiners (ZWJ), control and invisible characters are detected and badged — handy for debugging mojibake and 'invisible character' bugs. Everything runs in your browser — your input is never uploaded.
HTML entity encode / decode — &, <, > safely
Encode HTML special characters (< > & " ') into entities like &lt; and decode &amp; back into &. Toggle the direction in one click and optionally encode all non-ASCII characters as numeric references.
