multiline
A JavaScript utility for writing multiline strings without concatenation or array joins.
What is multiline?
Multiline is a JavaScript utility library that provides a clean syntax for writing multiline strings without concatenation or array joins. It solves the problem of messy, hard-to-read string concatenation in JavaScript by allowing developers to write multiline content inside block comments within a function wrapper. While ES2015 template literals are now preferred, Multiline was widely used as a practical solution before they became standard.
JavaScript developers working in environments without ES2015 template literal support, or those maintaining legacy codebases where readable multiline strings are needed without build tooling.
Developers choose Multiline for its simplicity, readability, and compatibility—it works in Node.js and browsers back to IE6 without transpilation, and integrates cleanly into existing JavaScript code with minimal overhead.
