'Emoji Translator': emoji-api.com doesn't work
Your issue is you're matching the exact text to an emoji slug or unicodeName, when really the text is a substring of either. ie pizza actually has a unicodeName of E0.6 Pizza which is your key in the dictionary _emojis. What you need to do is use your wordRegex against the key in _emojis: 
var keyValuePair = EmojiLib.Emojis.FirstOrDefault(kvp => Regex.IsMatch(kvp.Key, text));

return keyValuePair.Value;
var keyValuePair = EmojiLib.Emojis.FirstOrDefault(kvp => Regex.IsMatch(kvp.Key, text));

return keyValuePair.Value;

Cannot return null from an action method with a return type of 'Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.JsonResult'
Generally I'd recommend using the return type IActionResult unless you have specific requirements too, ie public async Task<IActionResult> CreateUser

var name = "James";

return Ok(name);
var name = "James";

return Ok(name);

Do be aware though if you return a string or int (or any other value type) with Ok() it wont serialize it for you.

For example Ok has an underlying type OkObjectResult which you could use but it's a lot easier to just return Ok(model) instead of return new OkObjectResult(model)

if you return Ok(model) it will serialize it to JSON for you and null values are permitted then. You generally shouldn't need to use the underlying XXXResult objects

Yeah they're all inverted, but it currently builds fine. It'll just not work as expected when anything gets implemented

@Ratn I will say your csproj references look to be the wrong way around, I'd assume Repositories should reference Models and not the other way around

Or you've got a sub-dependency installed that's a version lower than required for the Identity package you're installing

Check the package details -> dependencies for the version of Identity you're installing. If you're trying to use the most recent version on a .NET version that isn't compatible you'll get that error
