Instructions for beginners

First of all thanks for this nice plugin loader! 😎

It took me some minutes to install the Emoji Plugin for Obsidian in my mac, so I would like to share some more detailed instructions for beginners:

1. Install Node.js from https://nodejs.org/

2. Open a new terminal and paste npm install -g volcano

3. In the terminal, you need to navigate until the location of Volcano, in my case is /usr/local/lib/node_modules/volcano Then you need to change the path in your terminal, use the command cd: cd /usr/local/lib/node_modules/volcano You should be at the volcano directory:

4. Once there in the terminal run sudo node index.js, write your password and hit enter, you should see the following:

5. Go to your Obsidian Vault folder, and there, manually create a folder called volcano, and inside that one, another called plugins, there copy the emoji.js file from link

6. Open Obsidian, you don't need to touch anything on settings, simply open a note and, to insert an emoji, (at least on mac) hit ctrl + cmd + spacebar
