+# Newlines styleguide
+
+This style guide recommends best practices for newlines in Ruby code.
+
+## Rule: separate code with newlines only when it makes sense from logic perspectice
+
+```ruby
+# bad
+def method
+  issue = Issue.new
+
+  issue.save
+  
+  render json: issue 
+end
+```
+
+```ruby
+# good
+def method
+  issue = Issue.new
+  issue.save
+  
+  render json: issue 
+end
+```
+
+## Rule: separate code and block with newlines
+
+### Newline before block
+
+```ruby
+# bad
+def method
+  issue = Issue.new
+  if issue.save
+    render json: issue
+  end
+end
+```
+
+```ruby
+# good
+def method
+  issue = Issue.new
+
+  if issue.save
+    render json: issue
+  end
+end
+```
+
+## Newline after block
+
+```ruby
+# bad
+def method
+  if issue.save
+    issue.send_email
+  end
+  render json: issue
+end
+```
+
+```ruby
+# good
+def method
+  if issue.save
+    issue.send_email
+  end
+
+  render json: issue
+end
+```
+
+### Exception: no need for newline when code block starts or ends right inside another code block
+
+```ruby
+# bad
+def method
+
+  if issue
+
+    if issue.valid?
+      issue.save
+    end
+
+  end
+
+end
+```
+
+```ruby
+# good
+def method
+  if issue
+    if issue.valid?
+      issue.save
+    end
+  end
+end
+```
