Description

:clipboard: **Description**

- The badge is for the VS Code Marketplace
- This badge will show the trending number (daily, weekly, or monthly) for a VS Code Extension.
- "trending daily | 5"

:link: **Data**

- The current VS Code API that is used for other badges provides this information

:microphone: **Motivation**

- Creators of VS Code Extensions may want to display their trending numbers on their READMEs. A high trending score adds credibility to an extension.

***I'm unsure what the trending numbers are out of**
