# block-closing-brace-space-after Require a single space or disallow whitespace after the closing brace of blocks. ```css a { color: pink; } /** ↑ * The space after this brace */ ``` This rule allows a trailing semicolon after the closing brace of a block. For example, ```css :root { --toolbar-theme: { background-color: hsl(120, 70%, 95%); }; /* ↑ * This semicolon */ } ``` ## Options `string`: `"always"|"never"|"always-single-line"|"never-single-line"|"always-multi-line"|"never-multi-line"` ### `"always"` There _must always_ be a single space after the closing brace. The following patterns are considered violations: ```css a { color: pink; }b { color: red; } ``` ```css a { color: pink; } b { color: red; } ``` The following patterns are _not_ considered violations: ```css a { color: pink; } b { color: red; } ``` ### `"never"` There _must never_ be whitespace after the closing brace. The following patterns are considered violations: ```css a { color: pink; } b { color: red; } ``` ```css a { color: pink; } b { color: red; } ``` The following patterns are _not_ considered violations: ```css a { color: pink; }b { color: red; } ``` ```css a { color: pink; }b { color: red; } ``` ### `"always-single-line"` There _must always_ be a single space after the closing brace in single-line blocks.
