# text.tally

The number in a layout.tally.item, counting up as the work it measures happens

Component: [`<Text>`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/components/text.md) · Renders: `<span>` · Profile: [UI](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/ui.md)

## Example

```tsx
<Text intent="text.tally">Pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs.</Text>
```

## Choosing between neighbours

Find the row that describes your element, and use the intent on the right.

| If it is for… | Use |
|---|---|
| The number in a layout.tally.item, counting up as the work it measures happens | `text.tally` (this page) |
| A headline number on its own | [`text.stat`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/text/stat.md) |

## Connections

Declared in the registry, both directions. Where an intent is used in your own code is something check and the gallery see; this site has no app code.

## For registry authors

**Starter intents.** These are the intents `prongs add` puts in your registry, shown in this site’s theme. Yours are your own `registry.ts`: rename, restyle and add to them, and see them with `prongs add gallery`.

What this intent is built from and its entry in `components/prongs/registry.ts`. You only need this to change how it looks or to add an intent like it.
