For strings: single quotes or double quotes?

Which ones do you prefer?

In php I prefer double quotes because I'm too lazy to escape strings to concat variables. Bonus: I feel it makes the code more readable (or as readable as my codes get)

The same

Double quotes since single quotes are for chars in (AFAIK) all compiled languages

I try to use whichever occurs less in the actual text I will be using in that app (which I guess mostly applies to front end). So I switch based on content and then get confused when I go back to languages that require double quote 😔

‘Inconsistency”

Double.

'Single' or $mystring$dollar$mystring$ - only possible choices in language I use and I like both. Double quotes are reserved for naming identifiers, sort of like object names.

css:after {

content:'hello';

}

but print("world") - in any other programming/scripting language

Double!!

depends, in some languages single quotes identify a single character and double quotes a string

char = 'A'
string = "ABC"

Backticks in JS ``

" where I can so apostrophes don't cause an error

Whichever requires less escaping. Except when they're nested then the preference is just to get it working and move on.

Double quotes. Single for single chars.

Idgaf. I download the standard style on my editor and set it to prettify on save. Then I type however the heck I feel like that day.

Usually double quotes though, since it's the standard for strings.
