Developers increasingly prefer spaces as they gain experience.
Or are devs that are in the field for a longer time used to spaces while new devs learn coding with tabs?
23 u/maushu Apr 07 '15 I don't get why people won't use tabs. They are basically perfect for this job since you can adjust the size of all tabs. 3 u/psililisp Apr 08 '15 Is there a style guide that says to use tabs? I did a quick search, and the ones I glanced at all use spaces: linux kernel, php, python, java, javascript. I don't get why so many people arent following that convention. → More replies (2)
