Customizing Axes
This bar chart displays the 2018 population estimates for the ten most populous countries, using data from the United Nations World Population Prospects. The visualization highlights how D3 axes can be customized: it employs `d3.scaleBand` for the categorical country axis and `d3.scaleLinear` for the population scale, with `d3.axisLeft` and `d3.axisBottom` creating the axes. Styling via CSS customizes tick text, lines, and labels, while D3’s `select`, `csv`, and `max` functions load and process the data from a CSV file.
