Depends on #252 (this contains the same commits, so technically this could be merged as-is).

This updates to Unicode 17.0 (specifically the last commit). Unicode finally moved the files from https://www.unicode.org/Public/emoji/<version> to https://www.unicode.org/Public/<version>/emoji/ (see readme).

Some of the new emojis are skintone variations of already added ones. However, their base names are different, so find_map.php had issues trying to resolve parents. I added a command to generate this mapping explicitly ("! child -> parent").

What about this PR? In the other PR for unicode 16 you mention about IRCCloud. Does this mean this will not be needed to get merged?

This one will likely need to wait for implementations of the Unicode 17 emoji by Apple etc.

James is right - I wont merge this until Apple have released their images.

Updated to Twemoji v17.0.1. Waiting on Apple now.

Added the images from macOS 26.4 beta 4 by extracting the font from the update image. I only added the new images. When running the extract.pl script, you get some weird combinations of components for older emojis. The new ones seem fine when scrolling through the diff.

Hi all! Thanks for maintaining this repo – we find it very useful. With macOS 26.4 now released, is there an estimate as to when Unicode 17 will be available here?

Curious about this as well -- is there another blocker now that 26.4 (and 26.5) are out, or just a matter of time?
