Overview
The colon is mightier than the mouse. Type :emoji: shortcodes anywhere — no picker, no hunting, no nonsense.
**The colon is mightier than the mouse.** Stop hunting through emoji pickers. Just type :smile: and get 😄. Anywhere on the web. **How it works:** • Type : or # followed by an emoji name (e.g. :rocket: or #rocket) • A dropdown shows matching emoji — pick with arrow keys + Enter • Or type the full shortcode :rocket: for instant replacement • Works in text inputs, Gmail, Notion, Slack web, and any contenteditable field **1870+ emoji shortcodes** — the same ones you already know from Slack, GitHub, and Discord. **Features:** • Instant replace — type :fire: and it becomes 🔥 immediately • Two triggers — :fire (Slack-style) or #fire (quick pound key) • Autocomplete dropdown with keyboard navigation • Toggle auto-replace on/off • Toggle the whole extension on/off • Works everywhere — textarea, input, contenteditable • Zero dependencies — pure vanilla JS **What this extension does NOT do:** • Track you • Collect data • Phone home • Show ads • Ask for your credit card • Upsell you on "premium emoji" Free.
