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 customizes D3 axes by removing default domain lines, adding gridlines through tick marks, and formatting population labels with D3’s `format` function. It uses `d3.scaleLinear` and `d3.scaleBand` for scaling, with `d3.axisLeft` and `d3.axisBottom` for the axes. The SVG rendering includes custom labels for the title and x-axis, styled via external CSS.
