d3NoobV5 Reusable Examples - Simple Line Chart
This example displays a simple line chart of stock closing prices over time, with a steelblue stroke on an SVG canvas. It implements a reusable chart module using D3 v5, following the ProD3 pattern for maintainable structure. The code defines scales with `d3.scaleTime` and `d3.scaleLinear`, renders axes via `d3.axisBottom` and `d3.axisLeft`, and draws the line with `d3.line`. Data is loaded from a CSV file containing date and close values, with axis labels and a title included.
