Customizing Axes
This bar chart displays the population of the top 10 most populous countries, based on 2018 estimates from the United Nations World Population Prospects. The visualization customizes D3 axes by removing default domain lines, adding grid lines via tick sizes, and formatting population values with `d3.format` to abbreviate numbers (e.g., converting G to B). It uses `d3.scaleLinear` for the x-axis, `d3.scalePoint` for the y-axis, and `d3.axisBottom` and `d3.axisLeft` to render the customized axes in SVG.
