When you favorite an app, the text inside the icon adds one favorite immediately, that is local and will not get pushed to the database. What this PR does is gives the illusion that the website is updating the favorites immediately, adding another layer of feedback that the user has favorited an app. This has been tested, and works with no problems.
Example: When I favorited an app before, the color fill of the heart icon would change, but not the number, since the database is not updating with every favorite. eg. (30 --> 30)
Now, if I favorite the app, the text goes from 30 --> 31, which instantly provides feedback that you indeed favorited the app, and the number has changed.
Hopefully this will help the website feel more snappy and efficient with favorite handling.
