Curious question

I noticed that, at times, Guil adds extra blank lines in the declaration portion of a CSS rule, especially when discussing background and border properties. Is this just a matter of personal preference or is there a visual advantage to separating the code in such a way?

Could you refer to an example or the source video? I am pretty sure though that it is a personal preference/habit of coding. Every developer picks up their own way of coding, you should find your own and take things from others that you like and stick to it. I read an article about something similar yesterday that mentioned to sticking to one way of coding in this format. It's more important overall though that you focus on quality code! Hope this helps :)
