How to Use Socks
To use the Socks symbol (🧦) in HTML, insert the
entity 🧦 directly into your markup. The decimal entity 🧦 works in any HTML-serialised document.
In CSS pseudo-elements use content: '\1F9E6';.
In JavaScript and TypeScript the escape '\u{1F9E6}' evaluates to 🧦. In Python source, write '\U0001F9E6'.
The character encodes to F0 9F A7 A6 as UTF-8 bytes and D83E DDE6 as UTF-16 code units. Its decimal codepoint is 129510.
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.
