Convert text to Slack's alphabet emojis

This is a little demo project that uses Cloudlfare workers to run a string processing script that turns your text into slack alphabet emojis.

• Runs the conversion in the cloud, on the edge
• Stores counts in the Cloudflare Worker KV Store
• Returns HTML for GET requests based on params
• Gives you super powers to annoy your coworkers on Slack

Slack Alpha-moji-what!? 🤔

Slack comes with a built in emoji pack that lets you use emoji alphabet.

If you pasted your converted string into slack and it does nothing fancy, try this:

1. Click the emoji button in the text input area
2. Click the add emoji button in the bottom left of the popup
3. Click the tab that says emoji packs and install the alphabet pack
4. Annoy your coworkers!
