Customizing Axes
This chart displays the population of the top 10 most populous countries using a horizontal bar chart, with data sourced from the 2018 United Nations World Population Prospects estimate. It demonstrates customizing D3 axes by removing the default domain lines, styling tick text and lines via CSS, and formatting large population values with a custom tick formatter that abbreviates billions as "B". The visualization is built with d3.scaleLinear, d3.scaleBand, d3.axisLeft, and d3.axisBottom, rendering to SVG.
