+# Enforce newlines between operands of ternary expressions (multiline-ternary)
+
+JavaScript allows operands of ternary expressions to be separated by newlines, which can be can improve the readability of your program.
+
+For example:
+
+```js
+var foo = bar > baz ? value1 : value2;
+```
+
+The above can be rewritten as the following to improve readability and more clearly delineate the operands:
+
+```js
+var foo = bar > baz ?
+    value1 :
+    value2;
+```
+
+## Rule Details
+
+This rule enforces newlines between operands of a ternary expression.
+Note: The location of the operators is not enforced by this rule. Please see the [operator-linebreak](operator-linebreak.md) rule if you are interested in enforcing the location of the operators themselves.
+
+Examples of **incorrect** code for this rule:
+
+```js
+/*eslint multiline-ternary: "error"*/
+
+foo > bar ? value1 : value2;
+
+foo > bar ? value :
+    value2;
+
+foo > bar ?
+    value : value2;
+```
+
+Examples of **correct** code for this rule:
+
+```js
+/*eslint newline-before-return: "error"*/
+
+foo > bar ?
+    value1 :
+    value2;
+
+foo > bar ?
+    (baz > qux ?
+        value1 :
+        value2) :
+    value3;
+```
+
+## When Not To Use It
+
+You can safely disable this rule if you do not have any strict conventions about whether the operands of a ternary expression should be separated by newlines.
