我认为这是个人喜好的问题。我喜欢用下面的方法做这件事:

   var /* Variables */
            me = this, that = scope,
            temp, tempUri, tempUrl,
            videoId = getQueryString()["id"],
            host = location.protocol + '//' + location.host,
            baseUrl = "localhost",
            str = "Visit W3Schools",
            n = str.search(/w3schools/i),
            x = 5,
            y = 6,
            z = x + y
   /* End Variables */;

避免使用单语句版本(单var)的另一个原因是调试。如果在任何赋值行中抛出异常，堆栈跟踪只显示这一行。

如果使用逗号语法定义了10个变量，则无法直接知道哪个变量是罪魁祸首。

单个语句版本没有这种歧义。

我相信在我们开始使用ES6之前，使用单一的var声明的方法既不好也不好(如果你有lints和'use strict'的话)。这真的是一种口味偏好。但现在我的情况变了。以下是我对多行声明的一些看法:

Now we have two new kinds of variables, and var became obsolete. It is good practice to use const everywhere until you really need let. So quite often your code will contain variable declarations with assignment in the middle of the code, and because of block scoping you quite often will move variables between blocks in case of small changes. I think that it is more convenient to do that with multiline declarations. ES6 syntax became more diverse, we got destructors, template strings, arrow functions and optional assignments. When you heavily use all those features with single variable declarations, it hurts readability.

这只是个人喜好的问题。这两种方式之间没有区别，只是如果去掉空白，第二种形式节省了一些字节。

有c背景的人肯定会使用第二种方法

var variable1 = "Hello, World!",
variable2 = "Testing...",
variable3 = 42;

上面的方法看起来更像c语言

可维护性问题可以很容易地通过一些格式化来解决，比如:

let
  my_var1 = 'foo',
  my_var2 = 'bar',
  my_var3 = 'baz'
;

我严格按照个人喜好使用这种格式。当然，对于单个声明，或者它只是把工作搞砸的情况，我跳过了这种格式。
