Chat inputs without emoji support feel outdated and limit expression. This React input group adds SmileIcon emoji button, 0/2000 character counter, and Send button with SendIcon at block-end with border-t. Built with shadcn/ui InputGroup with ghost emoji button and ml-auto spacing, it's perfect for messaging apps, live chat, customer support, team collaboration tools, or any conversational interface where users need emoji access and character limits for expressive real-time communication.
