Customizing Axes
This bar chart displays the populations of the top 10 most populous countries, using 2018 estimates from the United Nations World Population Prospects. The visualization highlights customized D3 axes, including a horizontal axis that converts large population values into abbreviated units like “1.4B” and styled tick lines and labels. Built with d3.v5, the code uses `scaleLinear`, `scaleBand`, `axisBottom`, and `axisLeft` to position bars and axes, with data loaded from a CSV file and rendered as SVG.
