Customizing Axes
This bar chart displays the 2018 population estimates for the top 10 most populous countries, sourced from the United Nations World Population Prospects 2017. It showcases customized D3 v5 axes, including a formatted bottom axis that converts large numbers into abbreviated units (e.g., ‘B’ for billions) and removes unnecessary tick lines. The left categorical axis is cleaned of its domain and tick lines, while custom labels and titles are styled via CSS. The visualization uses `d3.csv`, `scaleLinear`, `scaleBand`, `axisBottom`, and `axisLeft` to render the SVG.
