Emoji Translator
Emojis have become the lingua franca of modern society. They are a fun and fast way to communicate, but an also extremely expressive mechanism for communicating emotions and reactions.
The objective of the Emoji Translator app is to translate text entered by the user into an equivalent string of emojis, translated from one or more words in the original text, and words for which there is no corresponding emoji.
