Has anyone reversed-engineered the Apple emoji dictionary that maps some keywords to emojis? Last time I checked, they only shipped binaries on the newest MacOS. Would love to use that mapping to elevate search on my custom emoji picker.


I think it’s just the name data from the Unicode standard? (possibly the CLDR data but I might be wrong)


It's more than just the CLDR keywords (https://unicode.org/emoji/charts/emoji-list.html), since text replacement or autocomplete shows up for words not on that list.


you may try assign text replacements for emojis: https://www.iphonehacks.com/2016/04/text-replacement-mac.htm...


I'm trying to find the source data Apple uses for text replacements / suggestions.
