**Twemoji v14.0** adheres to the [Unicode 14.0 spec](https://unicode.org/versions/Unicode14.0.0/) and supports the [Emoji 14.0 spec](https://www.unicode.org/reports/tr51/tr51-21.html). _We do not support custom emoji._
<del>The folks over at [MaxCDN](https://www.maxcdn.com) have graciously provided CDN support.</del>
MaxCDN is shut down right now, so in the meanwhile use a different CDN or download the assets. (See [Maxcdn has shut down, cdn not working anymore. · Issue #580 · twitter/twemoji](https://github.com/twitter/twemoji/issues/580)).
If instead you want to download a specific version, please look at the `gh-pages` branch, where you will find the built assets for both our latest and older versions.
Although there are two kinds of parsing supported by this utility, we recommend you use [DOM parsing](https://github.com/twitter/twemoji#dom-parsing), explained below. Each type of parsing accepts a callback to generate an image source or an options object with parsing info.
The second kind of parsing is string parsing, explained in the legacy documentation [here](https://github.com/twitter/twemoji/blob/master/LEGACY.md#string-parsing). This is unrecommended because this method does not sanitize the string or otherwise prevent malicious code from being executed; such sanitization is out of scope.
If the first argument to `twemoji.parse` is an `HTMLElement`, generated image tags will replace emoji that are **inside `#text` nodes only** without compromising surrounding nodes or listeners, and completely avoiding the usage of `innerHTML`.
If security is a major concern, this parsing can be considered the safest option but with a slight performance penalty due to DOM operations that are inevitably *costly*.
This will make sure emoji derive their width and height from the `font-size` of the text they're shown with. It also adds just a little bit of space before and after each emoji, and pulls them upwards a little bit for better optical alignment.
To properly support emoji, the document character set must be set to UTF-8. This can be done by including the following meta tag in the document `<head>`
To exclude certain characters from being replaced by twemoji.js, call twemoji.parse() with a callback, returning false for the specific unicode icon. For example:
As an open source project, attribution is critical from a legal, practical and motivational perspective in our opinion. The graphics are licensed under the CC-BY 4.0 which has a pretty good guide on [best practices for attribution](https://wiki.creativecommons.org/Best_practices_for_attribution).
However, we consider the guide a bit onerous and as a project, will accept a mention in a project README or an 'About' section or footer on a website. In mobile applications, a common place would be in the Settings/About section (for example, see the mobile Twitter application Settings->About->Legal section). We would consider a mention in the HTML/JS source sufficient also.
