Real renders of the compact metric — each one is the same component with different property values, and the API payload below each preview reproduces it exactly.

"revenue.format": "compact",
"revenue.label": "Subscribers",
"revenue.value": 1284000,
"revenue.delta": 2.1
}Total downloads tile
Lifetime package downloads abbreviated for a README or release card.

{
"revenue.format": "compact",
"revenue.label": "Downloads",
"revenue.value": 483200,
"revenue.showDelta": false
}When to use the compact style
- Follower and subscriber counters
- View or download milestone cards
- Dashboard tiles with big round numbers
Use it dynamically via the API
Push the latest number with '<key>.value' (or just '<key>') and the change with '<key>.delta'; label and format are overridable too.
