looking for feedback on this vnstat dashboard widget.

couple of questions:
- at first i put the interface/period(daily/monthly/yearly) in widget preferences, but then thought it was nice to be able to interact with it more. no other dashboard widget though have interactive html elements..
- i am not sure what the best way to enumerate all the interfaces is. there are a bunch of interfaces that are nonsense. i am enumerating the interfaces that come from vnstat data, not the interfaces from opnsense. not sure which list to pick at the authority. if you removed an interface and wanted to look at historical data, using the interfaces in vnstat data seems correct...
open to any other thoughts, suggestions, best practices.

This looks good!
Would it be possible as well to show transfer rate?

yea sounds good. i am going to do a PR soon, but i wanted to get some initial feedback on visual pieces, so thanks.
At least from my point of view the visual aspect is very good.
Its simple and eye catching. Basically providing a simple understanding of whats going on. It looks very natural as well to the other widgets.
For the transfer rates, if you could do bit/s as well pps I would be thankful. PPS is a metric important to troubleshooting for performance, and lot of time omitted and forgotten.
