How I write multi-line strings in JavaScript
Forget having to do the usual:
var bigString = 'Line 1\n' +
'Line 2\n' +
...;
Instead, make an array and join with the newline character:
var bigString = [
'Line 1',
'Line 2',
...
].join('\n');
I find this makes writing, reading, and editing more than a couple lines a lot easier.
