Airbnb JavaScript Style Guide
At least in Ruby, you can only do string interpolation with strings in double quotes.

JavaScript up to ES5 doesn't support string interpolation at all. ES6 introduces backticks `before${var}after` for that, but there's still no functional difference between single and double quotes.

Interesting they chose that, considering it's deprecated in bash and python.

Coffeescript as well. I try to use single quotes whenever possible, so if a string is templated it stands out a bit with the double quotes.
