Annotation Interface LargeDisplay

@Repeatable(LargeDisplays.class) @Retention(RUNTIME) @Target({FIELD,METHOD}) public @interface LargeDisplay
To display the value of the property in large format.

Generally with a large font, inside a small frame with spacing, etc. To make the value clearly visible, for emphasizing the value in the view, or for creating a dashboard style view.
Applies to properties.

Example: 

 @LargeDisplay
 int activeUsersCount;
It will display the active user count with a large number in the user interface.
Moreover, you can specify a prefix/suffix and icon, like this: 
 @LargeDisplay(suffix = "%", icon="label-percent-outline")
 BigDecimal vatPercentage;
In this case the suffix % is displayed after the value and the icon label-percent-outline is also displayed near the value, the icon is from Material Design Icons, like the ones used for actions.
Also if you combine @LargeDisplay with @Money and don't specify any value for suffix or prefix, the value for suffix/prefix is automatic, so if you write: 
 @Money @LargeDisplay
 BigDecimal discount;
Now the discount is displayed with the suffix € if the server is configure for Spain, or with the prefix $ if the server is configured for USA.
