Icon Reference

The icon field on both sections and items accepts an emoji character or an image URL.


Inserting emoji in a terminal editor

macOS (vim, nano, etc.)

Press Ctrl+Cmd+Space to open the system emoji picker. Click an emoji to insert it at the cursor position. This works in any terminal application.

Linux

The method depends on your desktop environment and terminal:

  • GTK terminals (GNOME Terminal, Tilix, etc.): Press Ctrl+Shift+U, type the Unicode code point (e.g. 1f3e0 for 🏠), then press Enter or Space.
  • KDE / Plasma: Use the emoji picker at Win+. if your version supports it, or install ibus and use its emoji input (Ctrl+Shift+E).
  • Copy/paste: The most reliable option on any distro — open the emoji table below in a browser and copy the character directly.

Windows (WSL, PowerShell, cmd)

Press Win+. (Windows key + period) or Win+; to open the built-in emoji picker. Search by name and click to insert. Works in Windows Terminal and most modern terminal emulators running on Windows.
