@ahoyahoy For top/right placement, you could take a look at how LayerChart's Axis component is implemented (built upon LayerCake)

For the right or top axes, I have a few other things on my plate at the moment so if you were to start it as a PR that would help.

I don't think Layer Cake is a great solution for multiple-axis charts since it has a built-in concept of one dataset per <LayerCake> component. I would use the position='absolute' option to layer multiple <LayerCake> components on top of one another but I could also see that being difficult to make room for two axes. I tend to think multiple-axis charts are a difficult design and information challenge so it's not something I've tried to tackle.

I'm also redoing the existing axis components to make their behavior a bit more standardized

I'll close this since we're tracking it in this PR: #165

I made some progress this week in a much better AxisY component with an interactive example where you can toggle the different layout options. Now that I have this as a model, I can port it to the other ones.

edit: actually fine to keep open
