Emo 0.8.0

Emo 0.8.0 release.

• SwiftPM: https://github.com/Desert-Ant-Labs/emo.git, from 0.8.0
• Android: ai.desertant:emo:0.8.0
• Android bundled model resources: ai.desertant:emo-tflite-resources:0.8.0
• npm: @desert-ant-labs/emo@0.7.0 (unchanged this release)

Highlights:

• Android minimum lowered from API 31 to API 24 (Android 7.0). NFKC normalization now runs through the host's java.text.Normalizer instead of the platform libicu, removing the API 31 floor. Validated on real hardware.
• On-device multilingual emoji suggestion with a small bundled model, consistent APIs across Swift, Kotlin, and JavaScript.

v0.7.0

Unified cross-platform Emo SDK: one Swift pipeline shipping to Apple (Core ML), Android (LiteRT), and JavaScript/Node (LiteRT.js in the browser, native Core ML/LiteRT in Node). Small model bundled by default on every platform; on-demand download from desert-ant-labs/emo@v0.7.0 available. Validated on macOS Core ML, Linux LiteRT, headless-Chromium, Node (linux-x64/arm64 + darwin-arm64), and Android on-device.

0.6.0

Emo 0.6.0 - transformer-pool model, ~800-emoji curated vocab.

• New architecture: a tiny 2-layer transformer encoder + attention pool over the semantic token sequence (order-aware; composes phrases/idioms instead of averaging).
• Curated ~800-emoji everyday vocab (foods, animals, objects, instruments, ...), near-duplicates merged.
• Independent held-out top-1 (judged by an independent model): ~75% (0.5.0) -> ~78%.
• On-device size ~5.0 MB (4-bit palettized).

0.3.0

Release 0.3.0 with the Danish-enabled bundled model.

• Adds Danish support as the 23rd language.
• Updates the bundled Core ML model, tokenizer, and metadata.
• Keeps the public API unchanged.

0.2.0

What's new

Preferred emoji skin tone

Emo.suggestions(for:) now accepts an optional skinTone to request a preferred skin tone for skin-tone-capable emoji. The model predicts the default (yellow) presentation; this is applied as post-processing.

try await Emo.suggestions(for: "go for a run", limit: 1, skinTone: .medium) // 🏃🏽

• New EmojiSkinTone enum: .default, .light, .mediumLight, .medium, .mediumDark, .dark.
• New String.applyingSkinTone() helper, handling ZWJ sequences and existing modifiers/VS16.
• Defaults to .default (no modifier) — fully backwards compatible.

0.1.0

On-device emoji suggestions — 22 languages, ~300 emojis, ~5 MB.
