Hey @omaijdot so you should be able to use this library with React, but jQuery is a peer dependency meaning that you'll also have to have jQuery installed as an NPM dependency.

Also, make sure that you're instantiating the picker inside of componentDidMount. It should look something like this:

import React from "react"
import EmojiPicker from "rm-emoji-picker"

class EmojiContainer extends React.Component {

      render () {
            return (
                 <div className="emoji-container" ref="emoji_container">
                        <pre className="input-area" contenteditable="true" ref="editor"></pre>
                        <img src="/your/emoji-icon.something" ref="icon" />
                </div>
            )
     }


     componentDidMount () {
            const container = this.refs.emoji_container
            const editor = this.refs.editor
            const icon    = this.refs.icon

            const picker = new EmojiPicker()
            picker.listenOn(icon, container, editor)
     }
}

Hope this helps. In summary, make sure you have jQuery installed and make sure that the DOM nodes you're passing to the picker are instances of HTMLElement.

Thanks it works. now the emoji selection is shown. now, i just need to play around with css to fix the cosmetic.
