This example presents a horizontal bar chart ranking the top 10 most populous countries (from a 2018 UN World Population Prospects estimate) by their population. The visualization stands out through its custom axes: the y-axis strips away default domain lines and tick lines, while the x-axis uses a custom tick format (d3.format('.2s')) and extends grid lines across the plotting area. Built with d3.v5, the code uses `scaleLinear` and `scaleBand` to map data to coordinates, `axisLeft` and `axisBottom` to generate axes, and SVG for rendering, with extensive styling applied via CSS.

AI-generated description

This bar chart shows population of the top 10 most populous countries. The data comes from the year 2018 estimate in United Nations: World Population Prospects 2017. It also demonstrates customization of D3 axes.

See also the first bar chart visualization that this one builds on: Making a Bar Chart.

Customizing Axes

This example shows a horizontal bar chart of the top 10 most populous countries using 2018 population estimates from the United Nations World Population Prospects. The visualization highlights custom axis styling, removing default domain lines and tick lines on the y-axis while adding grid lines and a formatted x-axis that converts values from billions to a "B" suffix. The code uses D3.js v5, scaling data with `scaleLinear` and `scaleBand`, and configures axes via `axisBottom`, `axisLeft`, and `.tickFormat`. Custom fonts, colors, and labels are applied through CSS, with SVG rendering for the output.

Customizing Axes

This example presents a horizontal bar chart ranking the ten most populous countries in 2017, using population data from the United Nations World Population Prospects. The visualization customizes both axes: the y-axis displays country names with gridlines removed, while the x-axis uses `d3.axisBottom` with a tick formatter that converts large numbers (e.g., G to B) and adds horizontal gridlines via `tickSize`. Built with d3.v5, it employs `scaleLinear` and `scaleBand` to map data, rendering SVG rectangles styled with a gold fill.

Customizing Axes

This example presents a horizontal bar chart of the top 10 most populous countries, using 2018 estimates from the United Nations World Population Prospects. The visualization highlights customized axes, including a band scale for country names on the y-axis and a linear scale for population on the x-axis. The code uses D3 v7 APIs such as `scaleLinear`, `scaleBand`, `axisBottom`, and `axisLeft`, with the x-axis labels formatted using `format('.3s')` to abbreviate large numbers. SVG rendering is used to draw the bars, with a title and axis label included.

Customizing Axes

This example displays a horizontal bar chart of the top 10 most populous countries, using 2018 population estimates from the United Nations World Population Prospects. The visualization customizes D3 axes by removing the y-axis domain line and tick lines, formatting x-axis tick labels from billions to abbreviated values using `d3.format`, and adding a custom axis label. It uses `d3.scaleBand` and `d3.scaleLinear` with SVG rendering. The chart builds on a previous bar chart tutorial, demonstrating additional axis styling and layout adjustments.

Customizing Axes

This example displays a bar chart of the top 10 most populous countries in 2018, using data from the United Nations World Population Prospects. It visualizes population values with horizontal bars and customizes the axes: the y-axis labels are kept, while grid lines are removed, and the x-axis uses a `format('.3s')` tick formatter to abbreviate numbers (with 'G' replaced by 'B' for billions). Built with D3 v5, it uses `scaleBand`, `scaleLinear`, `axisLeft`, and `axisBottom`, rendering SVG elements directly within a pre-sized `<svg>` container.

Customizing Axes

This example displays a horizontal bar chart of the top 10 most populous countries, using 2018 population estimates from the United Nations World Population Prospects. It demonstrates customized D3 axes by removing default domain lines, adding axis labels with large fonts, and applying tick formatting. The code uses d3.csv, d3.scaleLinear, d3.scaleBand, d3.axisLeft, and d3.axisBottom, with SVG rendering. Axes are manually styled via CSS classes, and the x-axis ticks are sized to span the chart height.

Customizing Axes

This example displays a bar chart of the top 10 most populous countries in 2018, using population estimates from the United Nations World Population Prospects. It builds on the basic bar chart by customizing D3 axes, removing the default domain lines and tick marks, and reducing y-axis clutter. The x-axis uses a custom tick format to abbreviate large numbers (e.g., “1.4B”), and both axis labels and the title are styled via CSS. The implementation uses D3 v5's `scaleLinear`, `scaleBand`, `axisBottom`, and `axisLeft` APIs with an SVG rendering.

Customizing Axes

This example displays a bar chart of the top 10 most populous countries using 2018 data from the United Nations World Population Prospects, presented as horizontal bars with population values on the x-axis. It demonstrates customized axes in D3.js: the x-axis uses a linear scale with tick labels formatted in abbreviated units (e.g., “B” for billions), while the y-axis is a band scale for country names, with grid lines and axis labels styled via CSS. The code uses d3.csv, scaleLinear, scaleBand, axisBottom, and axisLeft to render the SVG chart.
