This area chart shows world population growth over time, using a smooth curved path to emphasize the upward trend. The visualization loads CSV data and renders it as an SVG, leveraging React for the page structure and D3 v5’s `scaleTime`, `scaleLinear`, `area`, and `curveBasis` to generate the filled region. Axes are added with `axisBottom` and `axisLeft`, with tick formatting converting billions to compact labels. The chart uses a maroon fill for the area and includes labeled axes and a title.
