Use Emoji (useemoji.com) is an emoji keyboard extension for Chrome and a set of free emoji tools. The extension is listed in the Chrome Web Store as "Copy Emoji: Emoji Keyboard, Emoji List & Instant Copy" (Copy Emoji is its name there). It has two halves. The free half is an emoji picker in the browser toolbar: search every emoji by name and copy it with one click. The other half is :emoji: typing: on the websites you allow, type a code such as :fire: in any text box and it turns into 🔥 as you type, with a suggestion list after two letters. It also ships 2,714 ready-made kaomoji and symbol codes (2,356 of them kaomoji) and lets you save codes of your own.

The full text of the site, including the complete kaomoji, emoji shortcode and text symbol lists and every free tool, is in one file: https://useemoji.com/llms-full.txt
