How to Use Snowman

To use the Snowman symbol (☃️) in HTML, insert the entity ☃️ directly into your markup.

In CSS pseudo-elements use content: '\2603';. In JavaScript and TypeScript the escape '\u2603' evaluates to ☃️. In Python source, write '\u2603'.

The character encodes to E2 98 83 as UTF-8 bytes and 2603 as UTF-16 code units. Its decimal codepoint is 9731.

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.
