Make the search smarter #116

Closed oferRounds closed 1 year ago

oferRounds commented 1 year ago

Would be good if we can make the search smarter. For example, using this library, we can search for this 🙏 emoji, with other keywords beside its official name:

"wish", "namaste", "highfive", "pray", "thanks"

This is a feature Slack and Apple also has – perhaps we can think of adding this? I may be able to do so if you point me to the right place

I see that unicode-emoji-json also mentions it

+1 - this would be a fantastic improvement!

@jakex7 can you point us please to what is needed and where in the library to add it?

Hi @oferRounds @crieggalder Thanks for suggesting this feature, it has been added in the latest version 1.5.0 😃 I encourage you to update and test it yourself. If there is something that still needs improvement, or you have other ideas, let us know!
