What 🟄 means
It adds a star-shaped accent; surrounding words supply the point.
The extension adds marks alongside existing geometric shapes and groups light, medium, and unqualified star weights. This is a typography toolkit; surrounding words determine how 🟄 functions in a message.
Why does this star show as a box?
A missing glyph means the active font cannot draw it.
An app asks a font to draw the character and may try another font if needed. If none supports it, a box or question-mark mark can appear. The text still contains 🟄. Fonts that support it may draw slightly different outlines.
Typographic marker: use it as decoration or a visual marker; put any precise instruction in words.
A missing-glyph box means the viewer cannot see the star.
