Customizing Axes
This bar chart displays the population of the top 10 most populous countries, based on 2018 estimates from the United Nations World Population Prospects. The visualization demonstrates how to customize D3 axes, including tick formatting that abbreviates large numbers with a "B" suffix, axis line removal, and customized tick and label styling. The code uses D3 v5 modules like `scaleLinear`, `scaleBand`, `axisBottom`, and `axisLeft` to construct the chart, with SVG rendering for the output. Styling is applied via external CSS, affecting font sizes and colors for text and grid lines.
