  // Display
  width: 100%;
  height: 50%;
  margin: 10px 0;
  padding: 10px 20px;

• Don't use spaces after unary operators such as ! or ++.
• Use space after , in arguments variable.

Examples

// Space on after and before '='
var i = 0;

// Declaring variables using multiline.
var a, b, c,
    foo = true,
    bar = false;

// Space before and after '(' and ')'
if ( condition ) {
  // space after ',' in arguments variable
  doSomething( boo, bar, i );
} else if ( otherCondition ) {
  somethingElse();
} else {
  otherThing();
}

// Don't use spaces after unary operators such as '!' or '++'
while ( !condition ) {
  iterating++;
}

// Space before and after '[' and ']'
for ( ; i < 100; i++ ) {
  object[ array[ i ] ] = someFn( i );
}

// Declaring objects using multiline
var map = {
  ready: 9,
  when: 4,
  "you are": 15
};

// Long chaining methods
elements
  .addClass( "foo" )
  .children()
