How to add Emoji in code?

Question

In Xcode, I've previously gone to Editor > Emoji & Symbols, found some Emoji, double clicked it and had it appear in my code where the cursor is.

I'm trying to do that now and nothing is happening. I can't find any way to get the Emoji into Xcode.

Does anyone have some suggestion?

How about this: copy in Text Edit and paste it to Xcode. – devxoul Apr 25 '16 at 17:11 — devxoul, Apr 25 '16 at 17:11

This solution is for Mac OS (Mavericks and up) and not only Xcode:

Cmd+Ctrl+Space

Will bring this menu, where you can simply click on the one you want:

For Windows → "windows button" + "." – Koray Apr 28 '21 at 16:23
Cmd+Ctrl+Space no longer appears to work in Visual Studio Code 1.65.0, instead it's fn+e. – ejain Mar 08 '22 at 06:55

None of you have read the OP. You're all showing to get to the Emojis, which I've already described. – 4thSpace Apr 25 '16 at 18:03

While using Windows in Atom use Windows + ; for the emojis options.

For adding any emoji in VSCode, follow the steps:

1 Install the extension "Emoji" in vs code.

Whenever you need to add an emoji or any symbol in the code, run the Command Palette and search for "Emoji".
A list of emojis will show up. Select your required emoji.
