Trying to write an emoji code

How are emojis represented on Replit?

I would assume the same way they are on any device? All text characters come down to unicode. Emojis and other special characters are generally two unicode characters combined. Each operating system displays each unicode characters in it’s own way, which is why emojis look slightly different across operating systems, but there is a standard as to which unicode represents what character and which combinations represent which emoji. On the Ask forum (Discourse) emojis are actually a little different, they are converted to images and so are standard across all operating systems.
