FYI - the author of the blog post created https://prettier.io/ which is a very opinionated (automatic) javascript code formatter. His assertion about "nice code" was that you shouldn't spend effort on making it look nice. Let a tool do that for you.

Personally I dislike some the default formats that prettier have chosen but if it prevents a single minute of discussion on my team about how the should be formatted, it pays dividends over time. And eventually we, as humans seem to get used to just about anything.
