The placement of empty lines after blocks ending with a closing bracket and semicolon is not regulated. You may add an empty line if it improves readability.

```vala
var box = new Gtk.Box (Gtk.Orientation.VERTICAL, 12) {
margin_top = 12,
margin_bottom = 12
};
box.append (new Gtk.Button.with_label ("Click me!"));

var titlebar = new Gtk.Grid () {
visible = false
};

var main_window = new Gtk.ApplicationWindow (this) {
title = "MyApp",
child = box,
titlebar = headerbar
};
main_window.present ();
