Customizing Axes
This bar chart shows the population of the top 10 most populous countries, based on 2018 estimates from the United Nations World Population Prospects. The visualization highlights customized D3 axes, including a horizontal axis formatted with abbreviated numbers (using `d3.format` to convert millions and billions) and a vertical axis with large tick labels. Using D3 v5, the code employs `scaleLinear`, `scaleBand`, `axisBottom`, and `axisLeft`, while rendering as SVG. Grid lines extend across the chart, and the axis labels and title are styled via CSS for clarity.
