Didn't get how to add/change emoji

It's a doc issue or I'm dumb 😄

This is currently not clearly documented. I will try to improve that in the future.

The support for arbitrarily changing emojis is limited. The wwwassets/scripts/data.js file contains the full layout configuration.

This file is generated by the PHP scripts in the res folder (PHP is used because it doesn't require any additional dependency for these small scripts).

The config.json file defines how the file is generated, see config.schema.json for the exact layout.

The image files (svg) are stored in wwwassets/img. They are copied from the twemoji repo. They are used in function of the defined fallback rules.

Now, concretely:

• To update to a newer emoji version, update the numbers in forceVersion or remove the section to use the latest version (iirc, launching the build script will show you the latest versions)
• To add an arbitrary emoji, add it in the addon section, the group+subgroup pair must be present somewhere in the keyboards list otherwise you won't see it
• To remove a subgroup, remove it in the keyboards section
• Eventually, you will have to update the fallback rules and add newer twemoji images

After that, you have to rebuild the data file, see the README in the res folder.

Thank you! I'll do that tomorrow.
