Usage

Basic usage

<EmojiSelector onEmojiSelected={emoji => console.log(emoji)} />

Setting a default category

If you'd like to define a different default category, you can import the Categories class. Setting a default category can also improve performance by loading a single section rather than all sections at once.

import EmojiSelector, { Categories } from "react-native-emoji-selector";

<EmojiSelector
  category={Categories.symbols}
  onEmojiSelected={emoji => console.log(emoji)}
/>;

The available categories are all, people, nature, food, activities, places, objects, symbols, and flags.
