Stackedit: How about add the emoji support ?

[wenerme]

Emoji like this http://www.emoji-cheat-sheet.com/.

Also list all internal support icons ?

When export, also export support icons ?

I think this will make text more colorful.

I would be happy if the icons were hosted on a proper cdn over https. I don't want StackEdit to host hundreds of png.

How about if we host the images on jsDelivr? More info https://hacks.mozilla.org/2014/03/jsdelivr-the-advanced-open-source-public-cdn/

[wenerme]

Directly host on github ? Like a github pages ?

I would be happy for the program to just support Unicode emoji like 👍 and 😃. That should require no image hosting. See what happens currently:

I am also missing them. Count it as vote up :+1: on this enhancement/feature

[almereyda]

I would second this request.

Aren't GitHub emoji on some CDN already? Would be nice to have them rendered in StackEdit.

Any update? I can see :smile: is working but line art, no color.

[benweet]

Support for :+1: and others has been added in v5. To support shortcuts like :-) you have to add this to your files properties:

extensions:
  emoji:
    shortcuts: true

I've added it in Settings > Custom settings. But it didn't work. Any extra seetings need to be added?

[benweet]

That would be in Menu > File properties > YAML properties, or you can add default file properties for all new files in the settings:

newFileProperties: |
  extensions:
    emoji:
      shortcuts: true

[amitguptagwl]

Sorry to bother you

I'm using https://stackedit.io/app# on chrome browser. And usin the settings that you've shared. But it's not working

[benweet]

This will add properties to newly created files, so I guess it will work if you create a new file.

[amitguptagwl]

I've tried it in new file as well. Unfortunately it is not working.

You can request the GFM API whenever you find the :*: wildcard with the text and receive an emoji. For example, when you find :wave:, then you can request the GFM API with the payload as :wave: and receive back an emoji which you can replace :wave: for. In that scenario, you don't have to do hosting and Github does the hosting for you.
