In JavaScript and TypeScript the escape '\u{1F9E8}' evaluates to ๐งจ. In Python source, write '\U0001F9E8'.
The character encodes to F0 9F A7 A8 as UTF-8 bytes and D83E DDE8 as UTF-16 code units. Its decimal codepoint is 129512.
This is a fully-qualified emoji and should render with colour on iOS, Android, Windows and macOS. Appearance may vary between platforms, but the underlying codepoint is identical everywhere.
