Using these emoji on a page

Picking a set means every visitor sees the same face, whatever device they are on; a typed emoji is drawn by the visitor's own system font and looks different on every platform. Use the image with its name as alt, sized to the text around it:

<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/googlefonts/noto-emoji@e20cbc2bbec1926686be9f9bee7d1d2cfa1fea0e/2D/svg/emoji_u1f600.svg"
     alt="grinning face" width="20" height="20"
     style="height:1.2em;width:auto;vertical-align:-0.2em">

The name is the Unicode name, which is also what a screen reader says for the typed character, so the image and the text version read the same. These are animated WebP files, a few hundred kilobytes to a couple of megabytes each, so this page shows the still image and loads the animation only when you point at an emoji. On your own page, do the same: show the still and swap in the animation on hover or when it scrolls into view. For the whole set, with every skin tone, get it from the maker.
