Description
Problem Statement
Users want access to more emojis than what is currently available. The existing emoji options are limited, which restricts users' ability to express themselves and react to ideas on the board in diverse ways.
Proposed Solution
Add a comprehensive emoji picker component that allows users to select from the full range of emojis. This could include:
- A searchable emoji picker component (similar to Slack, Discord, or GitHub)
- Emoji categories (smileys, animals, food, activities, objects, symbols, flags, etc.)
- Recently used emojis section for quick access
- Search functionality to find emojis by name/keyword
- Consider using an existing library like
emoji-martoremoji-picker-reactfor a polished experience
The picker could be used for:
- Card reactions/voting
- Card content (if text supports emojis)
- Any other areas where emojis are currently used

Additional Context
Popular emoji picker libraries for React:
@emoji-mart/react- Feature-rich, customizableemoji-picker-react- Lightweight, easy to integrate
The component should be consistent with the existing shadcn/ui design system and support both light and dark themes.
