Prefer tabs over spaces (except for formats that require spaces, e.g. configuration files)
There is an
.editorconfig
file in the project that should get your IDE to display tabs as shorter 2 spaces by default.You can then change the display manually in your IDE or text-editor if you have different preferences.
This ensure developers can view code with whatever indentation they want without the flip-flopping of whitespace in the files. Reviews and diffs are also more difficult when the whitespace always changes.
