Forked from Customizing Axes

This example visualizes the populations of the top 10 most populous countries as a horizontal bar chart, with data from the 2017 United Nations World Population Prospects. It shows how to customize D3 axes by removing default domain lines and tick lines, rotating tick labels, and adding custom axis labels using `d3.axisBottom` and `d3.axisLeft`. The code also formats population values using D3’s `format` function, replaces "G" with "B" for billions, and applies tick sizes and styling 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.
