emojiver versioning scheme

This is a silly project that offers yet another esoteric alternative to semantic versioning. It is based on the use of emojis instead of numbers or words. Enjoy! :)

Why choose emojiver 😂😄😄?

emojiver 😂😄😄 is a versatile, vibrant, and exciting versioning scheme that brings life into your release cycle!

Comparisons

In comparison to semver 2.0.0, emojiver 😂😄😄 is much more colorful.

In comparison to zerover 0.0.1, emojiver 😂😄😄 is much more positive, in all meanings of the word.

In comparison to calver 2024(?), emojiver 😂😄😄 is much more timeless and unmoving.

In comparison to Kelvin versioning OK(?), emojiver 😂😄😄 is much more unbounded and extensible.

Examples

What better way is there to express your shock about version 10 than to use the 😱 emoji? By version 14 you definitely need a ☕ anyway, so it's a helpful reminder! At version 21, you definitely need a 🌴vacation🌴. Version 31 is clearly a 🎁, and let's 🎉party🎉 for version 32! What happens on version 42? The answer is 👍. You might wanna skip version 48, because it's just 💩. As with any good product that involves numbers, version 50 is 💯. Version 52 is extra secure 🔐, and subscribe for version 53 🔔. There might be delays 🔜 with version 55. Don't talk about version 🙊. Version 64 however, is very special 🚨! What the 🦊 is special about version 100? Getting to version 117 is a big 🧠 move. Just 🩹 it up for version 137. And if you get to version 151, you need a 🛟 because you're nearly running out of versions!

Definition

An emojiver 😂😄😄 version consists of three emojis, each emoji consists of one to three Unicode codepoints. Note that these codepoints are guaranteed to be and remain prefix-free, i.e. the first codepoint is always distinct. The translation table can be found below, or in a machine-readable version in:

New entries may be added to the bottom of the list in future emojiver releases, but the existing list will not change (i.e., no new entries will appear in non-end positions, no entries will be removed or moved).

How to determine compatibility and version increments

Dunno, just use semver I guess.
