Statistic
A Statistic highlights one value. Its label, unit, time range, and context explain the meaning.
0.7 percentage points vs previous 30 days (3.1%)
Lower is better: fewer completed purchases are being refunded.
A real example
A dashboard shows “Refund rate 2.4%, last 30 days” beside the previous period.
Main parts
- 01Trigger or task context
- 02Primary control surface
- 03Feedback, focus, and dismissal
Use it when
Use it to highlight one measure that helps a decision. Always show its unit and time range.
Do not use it when
Do not use a big number as decoration. Explain percentages and harmful changes honestly.

Before release, check the page structure, keyboard access, visible focus, contrast, and zoom. Also check loading, empty, error, success, cancel, and reduced-motion states.
Outcome: Use Statistic to solve this user need without losing the current context. User context: A dashboard shows “Refund rate 2.4%, last 30 days” beside the previous period. Recommended pattern: Statistic. Why it fits: Use it to highlight one measure that helps a decision. Always show its unit and time range. Do not use it when: Do not use a big number as decoration. Explain percentages and harmful changes honestly. Product requirements: Define the default, loading, empty, error, success, and recovery states. Keep user input. Give clear feedback after every action. Accessibility and resilience: Use semantic HTML, full keyboard access, and visible focus. Make the layout work when zoomed and support reduced motion. Follow the project’s current rules. Do not add a new UI library unless the project already uses it. Acceptance criteria: The main task works with keyboard only and at 320px width. Focus and status changes are announced. Check loading, failure, retry, cancel, and reduced-motion paths. Evidence and limits (evidence boundary): No single official standard controls the whole term. Its meaning may change across teams, platforms, or frameworks. Unknowns to confirm: Product wording, data source, analytics events, supported devices and languages, and platform limits.

Release checks: Before release, check the page structure, keyboard access, visible focus, contrast, and zoom. Also check loading, empty, error, success, cancel, and reduced-motion states. Before changing code, report the evidence you found, gaps, severity, and the smallest safe fix.
