one-var-declaration-per-line

This rule was deprecated in ESLint v8.53.0. Please use the corresponding rule in @stylistic/eslint-plugin-js.

Some developers declare multiple var statements on the same line:

var foo, bar, baz;

Others prefer to declare one var per line.

var foo,
    bar,
    baz;

Keeping to one of these styles across a project's codebase can help with maintaining code consistency.
