# unicorn/empty-brace-spaces

> Disallow spaces and line breaks inside empty braces

You can write an empty pair of braces as `{}`, `{ }` or over two lines. This rule keeps `{}`, so empty objects, blocks, function bodies and class bodies look the same everywhere.

Braces with a comment in them aren't empty, so they're left alone.

`--fix` removes the whitespace.
