Customizing Axes
This bar chart displays the 2018 populations of the ten most populous countries, with data from the United Nations World Population Prospects 2017. It demonstrates customizing D3 axes: the y-axis removes domain lines and tick marks, while the x-axis uses custom number formatting to abbreviate large values (e.g., converting "G" to "B"), adds grid lines, and labels the axis with a styled text element. The visualization uses d3.scaleLinear, d3.scaleBand, d3.axisBottom, and d3.axisLeft, rendering as SVG.
