Customizing Axes
This bar chart shows the populations of the top 10 most populous countries, using 2018 estimates from the United Nations World Population Prospects. It demonstrates how to customize D3 axes, with a horizontal linear scale for population and a vertical band scale for country names, formatted with tick labels that abbreviate large numbers and grid lines spanning the chart. The code uses `d3.csv` to load data, `d3.scaleLinear`, `d3.scaleBand`, `d3.axisBottom`, and `d3.axisLeft`, alongside SVG rendering. Styling is applied through CSS classes for ticks, labels, and the title.
