  Description     : A color and B&W emoji SVGinOT font built from EmojiOne artwork with support for ZWJ, skin tone diversity and country flags.

The font works in all operating systems, but will currently only show
color emoji in Firefox, Thunderbird and other Mozilla Gecko-based
applications. This is not a limitation of the font, but of the operating
systems and applications. Regular B&W outline emoji are included for
backwards/fallback compatibility.

This font is planned to be used by GNOME to display emoji:
