RE: Software Developers - You Should Use Spaces For Code Indentation
We were discussing this at work. I don't mind which as long as people are consistent within a project. Editors can make spaces act like tabs anyway
And vice versa. Our internal coding standards declare 4 spaces.
Ps: I am in charge for these standards ;)
Yes, in some languages spaces have semantical meaning. Which is strange in my opinion.
Readability is broken when you have tabs and an editor which uses to many spaces to display these tabs.
Some languages, like Python, care about indentation, but otherwise it's about readability and I care about that
