I'm currently developing a Node cli application and having used NPM tools, my interest has been piqued by the use of npm-check
and its use of icons in its cli interface. eg:
There must be plenty of other icons apart from the heart illustrated, but I'd like to know how to access them, so I can use in my own cli applications.
I'm currently using macOS, but hopefully these icons are platform independent(?)
FWIW, the list of icons is static and not likely to change. This is a request for factual information. There must be a list of icons that the terminal can use. I am trying t find out what this is.

Lets not quible. If you are going to turn this question down then please be specific. I am guessing as to what is wrong with this question. Off topic? I thought this was on topic for super user, but if not then please say so, so I'm not guessing.

Also, the answer to this question doesnt depend on time. The way to get to the list of icons is not going to change materially in the next ew years and I doubt it has changed in the last few years.

Look at this answer on Stack Overflow.
What you are asking about is UTF-8 character set which can be displayed in the Terminal in macOS and other operating systems. As to how to display them—as that answer explains—you can do something like this.
printf 😂 | hexdump
The output would be something like this:
0000000 f0 9f 98 82
0000004
Then using that hex value you could do this:
printf 'xf0x9fx98x82'
This might be all moot since a NodeJS module should be UTF-8 aware so you can just enter 😂
directly. But at least this explains how character sets work beneath the hood; just pic a cool character from a place like Emojipedia and there you go!
