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. It highlights how D3 axes can be customized, including tick formatting that converts values like billions to abbreviated labels, and removal of axis domains and tick lines for a cleaner look. The visualization uses d3.scaleLinear, d3.scaleBand, d3.axisBottom, and d3.axisLeft, with population data loaded from a CSV file and rendered as SVG rects.
