• Code is indented with 4 space tabs, never spaces
• Double quotes are always used unless the string contains double quotes, such as with HTML
• Trailing semicolons are always used
• When multiple variables are being defined at the top of a function they should generally be combined into one var statement
• Ternary operators are fine especially for string concatenation
• Performance should always be favored over readability for small snippets. i.e. $(body).append($('<div></div>').attr("data-id", id.split("-")[1])) instead of var elm = $('<div></div>'), id = id.split("-")[1]; elm.attr("data-id", id)....
