10 Slack emojis that developers should use

ALL of the companies that I've worked at so far used Slack. When I was entering the workforce, I always dreaded communicating in Slack - it was too formal! But that was until my coworkers and myself added emojis to our Slack workspace. It was a game-changer in our communication and overall tone.

So I compiled a list of the most used emojis our Slack workspace has: emoji-pack-for-devs

And on this post, I'll be highlighting the 10 best ones.

1. Lgtm
   Best for instantly approving Pull Requests with 100 files changed!
   

2. get-well-soon
   Always nice to show your team you care!
   

3. smart
   This is a well-known meme. Use it when a co-worker does something clever and witty
   

4. plus1
   Best emoji to use when you agree with someone's message
   

5. catjam
   Ultimate vibes
   

6. leo-toast
   Great for celebrating small and big wins
   

7. kek
   This emoji perfectly expresses how funny the msg was :D
   

8. merged
   Used to indicate that your code has been merged and is on prod!
   

9. thisisfine
   How we feel every day as developers..
   

10. thankyou
    Always nice to show gratitude towards your teammates :)
    

That wraps it up!
