Customizing Axes
This bar chart displays the population of the top 10 most populous countries using 2018 estimates from the United Nations World Population Prospects dataset. Built with D3 v5, the visualization demonstrates customized axis styling, including tick mark removal, custom bar chart formatting, and a gridline pattern. The chart uses d3.scaleLinear, d3.scaleBand, d3.axisLeft, and d3.axisBottom, with population values scaled and formatted using d3.format to display numbers in billions. The SVG rendering applies custom CSS for font sizes and colors, and includes axis labels and a title.
