How to Integrate TikTok Emojis into Your Web Applications?
Modern web products engage users by blending culture with technology, and nothing exemplifies this better than TikTok’s unique emoji collection. This guide walks you through seamlessly adding TikTok emojis to your web projects with open-source, performance-optimized component libraries.
Why TikTok Emojis for the Modern Web?
TikTok emojis transcend simple decoration. They are instantly recognizable symbols, carrying cultural and emotional relevance, especially among Gen Z and younger audiences. Emulating them in your apps not only boosts interface engagement but also helps your product stay current and relatable.

Prerequisites and Best Practices
Before you start:
- Node.js 18+ and a package manager (npm, yarn, or pnpm) are required.
- Familiarity with React or Vue 3 is recommended.
- Follow component library best practices: concise imports, tree-shaking, and type safety.
Integration with React
-
Install the Library:
npm install @tiktok-emojis/react
-
Use Emoji Components in Your App:
import React from "react"; import { Angel, Happy, Cry, Laugh } from "@tiktok-emojis/react"; export default function App() { return ( <div> <Angel size={32} /> <Happy size={48} /> <Cry width={24} height={24} /> <Laugh size="6rem" /> </div> ); }
- Each emoji is an optimized SVG React component, so you get pixel-perfect visuals, and minimal performance cost.
- The package supports tree-shaking for leaner bundles.
- Props like
size
,width
, andheight
let you precisely control emoji display.
Integration with Vue 3
-
Install the Library:
npm install @tiktok-emojis/vue
-
Register and Use Components:
<script lang="ts"> import { defineComponent } from "vue"; import { Angel, Happy, Cry, Laugh } from "@tiktok-emojis/vue"; export default defineComponent({ components: { Angel, Happy, Cry, Laugh } }); </script> <template> <div> <Angel :size="32" /> <Happy :size="48" /> <Cry :width="24" :height="24" /> <Laugh size="6rem" /> </div> </template>
- Vue package supports Composition API.
- Like in React, all emoji components are SVG-based for clarity across devices.
- Prop support (
size
,width
,height
) is consistent for a smooth DX.
TypeScript Support
Both React and Vue libraries are built with TypeScript and ship with robust type definitions for complete editor assistance.
interface TikTokEmojiProps {
width?: string | number;
height?: string | number;
size?: string | number;
}
Tips for Clean Integration
- Import Only What You Use: Reduce bundle size by importing just the emojis you need.
- Performance: Lazy-load emoji components if you expect unusually high density (like custom pickers).
- Responsiveness: Leverage the
size
prop (like"2em"
) for font-relative scaling.
