I hate using spaces for indentation. I’m just putting it out there. My work mates think it’s a bit silly to have such a strong opinion on such a minor (mostly invisible) thing, however the pedantic perfectionist in me feels strongly about this.
Why do I hate using spaces for indentation? I’ll let the comparative advantages (and disadvantages) speak for themselves.
I’ve been doing web development professionally since 2004 and in that time I’ve learnt a lot and I consider myself to be a good web developer. I’m mostly self-taught, learning most of what I know from research on the Internet, in combination with experimentation, to both find out the way things work and figure out the best ways to use them.
While the Internet is an amazing resource, there is a lot of bad information out there and you should always be careful when taking information at face value. I’ve compiled a list of links to information that I personally think is important if you want to be a good web developer (or designer).
It’s really difficult trying to bring to mind all of the most important things that I know so there is probably quite a bit missing, but this is a good start. I may well follow this post with another one later with things I’ve missed. If you think there is something really important that I’ve missed fell free to leave a comment.

The following posts were my favourite:
