Emoji, Web Components, and Art
summary
Builds a concrete widget called emojillate element that pixelates an uploaded image, samples each grid cell’s average RGB, picks a closest emoji, and emits a pile of emoji-containing spans (not a canvas) so output is copy-pasteable. Uses an input type="file", a paper-slider for resolution, Polymer data-binding and web components for encapsulation. Notes tradeoffs: RGB distance is linear and imperfect, Slack breaks monospace alignment, but the component runs in-browser and produces shareable emoji art.
