In CSS pseudo-elements use content: '\2716';.
In JavaScript and TypeScript the escape '\u2716' evaluates to ✖️. In Python source, write '\u2716'.
The character encodes to E2 9C 96 as UTF-8 bytes and 2716 as UTF-16 code units. Its decimal codepoint is 10006.
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.
