Customizing Axes
This bar chart displays the population of the top 10 most populous countries using 2018 estimates from the United Nations World Population Prospects. It demonstrates customized D3 axes, including formatted tick labels that convert large numbers to abbreviated units, grid lines, and a custom axis label. Built with d3.scaleLinear, d3.scaleBand, d3.axisLeft, and d3.axisBottom, the chart renders in SVG. The y-axis gridlines are removed, while the x-axis uses a tick format that replaces 'G' with 'B' for billions.
