Overview
Filament comes with a “stats overview” widget template, which you can use to display a number of different stats in a single widget, without needing to write a custom view. Start by creating a widget with the command:StatsOverview.php file. Open it, and return Stat instances from the getStats() method:
Adding a description and icon to a stat
You may add adescription() to provide additional information, along with a descriptionIcon():
descriptionIcon() method also accepts a second parameter to put the icon before the description instead of after it:
Changing the color of the stat
You may also give stats acolor() (danger, gray, info, primary, success or warning):
Adding extra HTML attributes to a stat
You may also pass extra HTML attributes to stats usingextraAttributes():
$ in $dispatch() since this needs to be passed directly to the HTML, it is not a PHP variable.
Adding a chart to a stat
You may also add or chain achart() to each stat to provide historical data. The chart() method accepts an array of data points to plot:

Adding a heading and description
You may also add heading and description text above the widget by overriding the$heading and $description properties:
getHeading() and getDescription() methods:
