Customizing Axes
This visualization displays the population of the top 10 most populous countries based on 2018 estimates from the United Nations World Population Prospects. It shows a bar chart where each rectangle’s height corresponds to the population value, with customized axes featuring large tick labels, colored tick lines, and styled axis titles. The code uses D3 v5’s `select`, `csv`, and scaling functions to load and process data, rendering SVG elements. Custom CSS classes style the ticks, labels, and title, demonstrating how to fine-tune axis appearance beyond default settings.
