New Emoji plugin for markdown editor released - Feedack appreciated

I have created a new emoji plugin for the markdown editor. Initially I created the plugin for myself but after reading this thread I decided to publish the plugin. You can download the JPL file here or you you search for "Markdown Emoji Autocomplete" in the plugins section of the settings.

Feel free to test it out and leave feedback here in this thread.

Issues can be reported in the github repo.

Thanks for creating this!

I'm curious, though, what the use case would be for this over simply using your OS specific emoji picker and putting the emoji itself into the markdown document? I have never understood the need for this kind of feature, but obviously people use it. In Windows I just use Win + ;

HOW TO...

§ Markdown Emoji Autocomplete plugin in Joplin:

§ The documentation page:

§ No parameters in JOPLIN.

§ About 100 emojis...

§ In action:


After inserting ":" with the wheel of the mouse we can scroll in the list of emojis.

We just need to click on the emoji we want...

Every emoji has a name that we can use later in order to not scroll...

The emoji name and [ENTER] are enough to have the emoji inserted.

It's not possible to insert emojis from the RTE but, emojis are perfectly the same in the RTE (Rich Text Editor) after inserting them in the MDE (MarkDown Editor).

The PDF export is good:

The .jex export - import is good too...
