Replace Tabs with Spaces

[JimBobSquarePants]

Spaces are a best fit for OSS code as it maintains consistency across different IDE's.

Different IDEs? Visual Studio and ... ? 😜

I'll review tomorrow.

@mattbrailsford - any comment?

[JimBobSquarePants]

I dunno, Sublime, Xamarin or maybe if you're feeling all out ballsy, Notepad 😉

[mattbrailsford]

What's wrong with being different? :)

Honestly not bothered either way.

[leekelleher]

The IDE debate is a moot point, as with this small Umbraco library, there's only going to be a handful of devs looking at it... in Visual Studio.

However, I'm all for collaboration and if the general consensus is that OSS projects use spaces over tabs, then I'm fine with that.

What I do when working on other projects that use spaces, I have the "Untabify Selected Lines" option wired up to a keyboard short-cut (CTRL+K,CTRL+T) ... then before I'd save a page, I'd go: CTRL+A, CTRL+K,CTRL+D, CTRL+K,CTRL+T ... a bit long winded, but it does the job - I'm sure there's a VS extension that can automatically do that, but I like the conscious control.
