Customizing Axes
This bar chart displays the top 10 most populous countries based on 2018 United Nations estimates, with population values in thousands. It demonstrates customized D3 v5 axes, including a bottom axis with tick formatting that converts large numbers using `d3.format('.3s')` to compress values like millions into abbreviated forms. The y-axis uses `d3.scaleBand` for country categories, while the x-axis uses `d3.scaleLinear`. Custom styling, tick sizes, and axis labels are applied via CSS classes, and the chart is rendered as SVG.
