This package introduces support for including coloremoji icons in text and math mode of a LaTeX document. Coloremoji
can be directly entered (as unicode) in the .tex document and will be replaced with color images using the Apple Color
Emoji typeface in the output .pdf document. After numerous requests to add to CTAN
(https://github.com/alecjacobson/coloremoji.sty/issues/5), I've now added it here. I expect maintenance will be minor
as new emojis can be added procedurally.
