This area chart displays the number of YouTube channels per year, with the x-axis representing years and the y-axis showing channel counts. The visualization uses D3 v5’s `scaleTime`, `scaleLinear`, `area`, and `curveBasis` functions to generate a smooth, filled path rendered as SVG. The chart includes labeled axes, a title, and a dark goldenrod fill for the area. Data is loaded from a CSV file hosted on GitHub Gist, parsed with `Date` and numeric conversions, and styled via CSS classes for the path, title, and axis labels.
