Html special characters , UTF-8 special characters , emojis in html

We all are well known by emojis. We use them frequently in chats to express ourselves.
In web emojis and other special characters can be added using special keywords which is like this &#*****; where the places of asterisks (*) are to be taken by UTF character values. For example the emoji 😘 can be added using &#128536

If you want you can also add emojis and other special characters without writing the UTF code.
You can also copy and paste these entities directly in your HTML document, but before that add following line of code in <head>tag of document
HTML
<meta charset="UTF-8">

Example:


HTML
<p>I am &spades;</p>
<p>I am &#9824;</p>
<p>I am &#x2660;</p>
I am ♠
I am ♠
I am ♠

A list of unicodes of html emojis can be found here at https://apps.timwhitlock.info/emoji/ and also here athttp://www.unicode.org/emoji/ or at https://websitebuilders.com/tools/html-codes/emoticons/
W3SCHOOLS has given a very easily readable list of all the UTF-8 Special characters.
