      The Number visualization is a concise and effective way to present key metrics in a visually impactful format. It displays a single numerical value, which allows users to quickly assess performance at a glance. The optional small line graph underneath the number provides additional context by illustrating recent trends, making it easier to identify fluctuations and changes over time. This visualization is particularly valuable for tracking critical metrics, enabling teams to make informed decisions based on real-time data.
