If you prefer video tutorials, [Brodie Robertson ](https://www.youtube.com/c/BrodieRobertson ) has made a great video on setting up the picker and creating some packs: https://youtu.be/Yz3H6KJTEI0.

## Comparison with other sticker pickers
2023-09-30 14:49:50 +02:00
- Scalar is the default integration manager in Element, which can't be self-hosted and only supports predefined sticker packs.
- [Dimension ](https://github.com/turt2live/matrix-dimension ) is an alternate integration manager. It can be self-hosted, but it's more difficult than Maunium sticker picker.
- Maunium sticker picker is just a sticker picker rather than a full integration manager. It's much simpler than integration managers, but currently has to be set up manually per-user.

2023-09-30 14:49:50 +02:00
- `?config=<link to an index.json file>`
- allows to use an external `index.json` file (see [packs/README.md ](packs/README.md ))
- this overrides the `web/packs/index.json` file
- `?theme=[$theme|default|light|black|dark]`
- provides the theme to use for the sticker picker
- `$theme` matches the theme of your Element client
