Let's focus on the next component, `LatestInvoices`. Its purpose is to display the last five invoices, sorted chronologically by date.

You might think that achieving this with JavaScript is straightforward. However, as the app grows and more data appears, it's preferable to handle the sorting and limiting of invoices using SQL. This approach prevents overloading the frontend with unnecessary calculations.

To inspect the `fetchLatestInvoices` function, please visit `app/lib/data.ts`.

## Back to the Project
We'll employ the `fetchLatestInvoices` function on the dashboard page to retrieve the most recent invoices and display them using the `LatestInvoices` component.

Don't forget to visit `app/ui/dashboard/latest-invoices.tsx` and uncomment the provided UI.

## Challenge
Now, it's your chance to fetch the data and present the information to the user.

Primarily, we have a `Card` component on the dashboard page. Your task is to import the `fetchCardData` function, which provides:
- `numberOfSellers`;
- `numberOfInvoices`;
- `totalFulfilledInvoices`;
- `totalAwaitingInvoices`.

Based on the retrieved data, uncomment the corresponding `Card` component.
