Add emoji

[pedro-vicente]

This interface looks fantastic. Do you have any idea how to change it, to add emoji in the input dialog? Currently, a stop sign is displayed when trying to click the emoji link. Thanks

You get the red "not allowed" sign because this kind of feature isn't implemented. You can implement this feature yourself and open a PR if you'd like :). There are many packages you can install from npm that allows you to make one.

I understand that. I was asking what would be needed to implemented it in Next.JS. I know absolutely nothing about Next.JS, so I am asking for a tutorial, sample code that you can point to, thanks

I haven't implemented one myself which is why I suggested using an npm package. I found this one. It comes with documentation and sample code for you as well.

Hmm, cool small feature. but no plan to do this since I'm really busy rn. You can try to implement it yourself or maybe even make PR yourself, so I can review it and merge it to this project.

@ccrsxx My goal here was to adapt this library as a GUI front end for a large C++ back end, that is itself a twitter like engine. This interface looked ideal to adapt (by embedding it inside a C++ web engine) , but at this time I am not sure if it is worth the time. I might prefer a 100% C++ solution, where the support for emoji rendering is also possible, but nothing like this library in widgets, like 'like' posts, retweet, etc. I might get back to this, if the other solution is not possible, thanks for the offer

@ccrsxx So, Javascript is really not for me, and I decided to redo your code in C++. I have a GUI already, so that's not an issue. What I am trying to figure out is the navigation algorithm you did. By that , I mean the all Twitter experience (well, not all) of browsing, responses, etc.

The effect I want is exactly like this interface.

Here's what I have

a feed entry displays a "tweet";
it has text, images, media, a list of responses , list of likes, retweets

a feed entry has 2 states :

1. regular mode: a regular entry in the feed, an element in the feed list
2. active mode: after mouse click, covers all feed area, displays responses
3. a stack is made to return to original post; this feed is added to stack,
4. add a "<- Home" at top, to return to original post (regular mode)
5. click on a response, puts that feed entry in active mode, and adds it to the stack

Any comments on this ?

Gracias
