emoji.io?

Date started: December 2022, Junior year of College

I had an idea for a simple and cute website called emoji.io. The idea is that you can write messages with emojis. Here are some samples (this site is a work in progress, and the emojis are hardcoded at the moment)

I have a copy to clip board buttton so that you can type out the message that you want to send, and the either email or text it.

One issue that I am already running into is how data one of these emoji messages takes. I have crashed my newish i-Phone sending too large of a message :). I think that I will have to make every letter be an 8x8 grid of emojis to make the messages around 50% smaller.

This has been a fun mess around project! I am considering publishing the website if people are interested in using this. I would like to make the emojis be customizable for users.
