Stat

A stat is a compact KPI tile — a labelled metric with an optional change indicator — designed to sit inside a Card on a dashboard. RhombusKit's <rhombus-stat> is bespoke and display-only: no Material, no new tokens, and it never leans on colour alone to signal direction.

Trend vs. sentiment

Two independent knobs. trend points the arrow; sentiment picks the colour. They default to auto (from the delta's sign) but decouple for inverted metrics — a falling churn rate keeps its true down arrow while reading as a positive.

When to use

  • For a headline metric on a dashboard or summary card — a number, its label, and how it changed.
  • When the direction of change matters and must be accessible (colour-blind safe, screen-reader announced).

When not to use

  • For tabular figures across many rows/columns, use a Data Table.
  • For a status label (draft, published) rather than a metric, use a Tag.
