Emoji can help achieve an inviting and approachable tone for certain types of documentation, such as quick start guides. Because emoji can make content feel less dense and more engaging, they may be especially appropriate for contexts such as presales documentation, where a whiff of marketing-speak is acceptable. Emoji may also be used to differentiate a new product from existing enterprise offerings. And emoji in tables can make the information easier for readers to scan, although icons used as inline images can achieve the same thing.

On the other hand, emoji can cause accessibility issues because they aren't necessarily interpretable by assistive technology. (For details, read `Do emoji and accessibility work together? <https://www.tiny.cloud/blog/emoji-and-accessibility/#accessible-emoji>`_ by Di Mace.) The meanings of emoji may be interpreted differently across cultures, so you risk sending a different message than you intended when you use emoji. Emoji can be distracting or even inconsiderate to a confused reader. Documentarians may also spend a lot of time trying to use emoji to affect a chatty tone instead of writing clearly and end up with content that doesn't actually explain anything. It's best to carefully consider your audience and approach emoji use with caution.
