 ## Installing
 
-If you use NPM, `npm install d3-axis`. Otherwise, download the [latest release](https://github.com/d3/d3-axis/releases/latest). You can also load directly from [d3js.org](https://d3js.org), either as a [standalone library](https://d3js.org/d3-axis.v1.min.js) or as part of [D3](https://github.com/d3/d3). (To be useful, you’ll also want to use [d3-scale](https://github.com/d3/d3-scale) and [d3-selection](https://github.com/d3/d3-selection), but these are soft dependencies.) AMD, CommonJS, and vanilla environments are supported. In vanilla, a `d3` global is exported:

 If *size* is specified, sets the outer tick size to the specified value and returns the axis. If *size* is not specified, returns the current outer tick size, which defaults to 6. The outer tick size controls the length of the square ends of the domain path, offset from the native position of the axis. Thus, the “outer ticks” are not actually ticks but part of the domain path, and their position is determined by the associated scale’s domain extent. Thus, outer ticks may overlap with the first or last inner tick. An outer tick size of 0 suppresses the square ends of the domain path, instead producing a straight line.

+If *reach* is specified, sets the tick reach to the specified value and returns the axis. If *reach* is not specified, returns the current inner tick reach, which defaults to 0. The tick reach controls the length of the tick lines beyond the axis’ native position, and can be set to a chart’s width to create a grid.
