Would be a really nice touch if trending was added to the Big Numbers component. As an example you might be comparing the ‘No of Closed Tickets’ for this month against last month. You’d have an up or down arrow to show the trend and the ability to colour the arrow red or green against up or down (sometimes down is good and sometimes it is not) ---

Normally I would say to just use emoji and a template column to join it with a number to get the trend, but for some reason the Unicode Consortium has never created a green triangle emoji that matches the red triangle emoji, but you could use the up and down triangles if you are OK with both being red. 🔺🔻 ---
