First version is live!

Hi folks,

Last weekend, I came up with the 💡 that I spend too much time searching for the perfect emoji.

I use them a lot, in various contents and applications and the search feature, when it exists, is often poor and frustrating because super slow.

I gave myself the challenge to ship the fastest emoji search engine I could build. Which also answers another topic of my todo list which is to re-bench existing open source search engines. I gave me the constraint to build it in a couple of days, at max. 💪

My goal is to make the search as fast and simple as possible, mobile and web friendly, and usable with only the keyboard when working on a computer. (yes, let's avoid to use a mouse when we can).

I spent last Sunday on the first prototype and I did today the polish and packaging (bank holiday in France 💃).

It finally took me a dozen of hours to ship, here is the first version https://instantemoji.nidup.io/

I'd love to hear your thoughts and feedback. Thank you! 🙏
