Emoji data
==========
We use Emoji data from Unicode and the CLDR, stored in a GVariant.
The immediate source for our data is the json files from
https://github.com/milesj/emojibase.git
To convert the data from that repository to a GVariant that GTK
can use, the convert-emoji tool can be used:
convert-emoji $emojibase/packages/data/de/data.raw.json de.data
for example (for German).
To make these usable by GTK, we wrap them in a resource bundle
that has the GVariant as
/org/gtk/libgtk/emoji/de.data
and install the resulting resource bundle at this location:
/usr/share/gtk-4.0/emoji/de.gresource
