⚡JS Tip: Create Emoji Characters in JavaScript using String.fromCodePoint();

The String.fromCodePoint() method was added to ECMAScript 2015. The result of this method is a string (and not a String object).
Because fromCodePoint() is a static String method, you must call it as String.

let smile = String.fromCodePoint(128516); // '128516' is character code
let str = `I got you ${smile}!`;
console.log(str);
// output: "I got you 😄!"
