Research direction

Start by reviewing the repository structure and the linked emojify.js library to determine where a JavaScript utility would belong. Confirm the desired short-code-to-emoji behavior and identify how the repository currently handles JavaScript; the work is done when the function supports codes such as 🤷 and covers the intended emoji mappings.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

I want a simple JavaScript function that takes a short code like 🤷 and turns it into the corresponding emoji character. Right now I use a library that should be maintained, so that when more emoji characters are added, corresponding short codes are added.
