+# no-nested-template-literals
+
+Template literals (previously named "template strings") are an elegant way to build a string without using the `+` operator to make strings concatenation more readable.
+
+However, it’s possible to build complex string literals by nesting together multiple template literals, and therefore lose readability and maintainability.
+
+In such situations, it’s preferable to move the nested template into a separate statement.
+
+## Noncompliant Code Example
+
+```javascript
+let color = "red";
+let count = 3;
+let message = `I have ${color ? `${count} ${color}` : count} apples`; // Noncompliant; nested template strings not easy to read
+```
+
+## Compliant Solution
+
+```javascript
+let color = "red";
+let count = 3;
+let apples = color ? `${count} ${color}` : count;
+let message = `I have ${apples} apples`;
+```
