How to Use Boy
To use the Boy symbol (ðĶ) in HTML, insert the
entity 👦 directly into your markup. The decimal entity 👦 works in any HTML-serialised document.
In CSS pseudo-elements use content: '\1F466';.
In JavaScript and TypeScript the escape '\u{1F466}' evaluates to ðĶ. In Python source, write '\U0001F466'.
The character encodes to F0 9F 91 A6 as UTF-8 bytes and D83D DC66 as UTF-16 code units. Its decimal codepoint is 128102.
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.
