About this data

This page tracks the use of emojis in GitHub README files, measuring the total count and diversity of emojis used. The numbers are sourced from a manual analysis of GitHub repositories, as the GitHub API does not provide this information. This data is interesting because it reveals the tone and personality of a project, as well as the level of community engagement. By analyzing emoji usage, we can gain insights into the culture and values of a project's community. The data is presented in a straightforward and easy-to-understand format, allowing users to explore and compare emoji usage across different projects.
