Hi

What would be the easiest way for me to display a country flag icon in a table cell?

Thanks

Ben

Is there any way to remove the grey background for the flag images supplied by flagsapi?

As an alternative if you have the ISO2 Country code, I use the following line to get the country flag emoji

{{countrySelect.selectedItem.iso2_code.toUpperCase().replace(/./g, char => String.fromCodePoint(127397 + char.charCodeAt() ))}}

Sadly I can't remember who to give the credit to, I found this method after a fair bit of googling.
