As a developer should you use spaces in folder and or file names? Please elaborate on both why and why nots.

    You should never do this.
    Doesn't matter if dev or not.

    @metamourge are folders okay with spaces? Some software throw spaces in folder names when they automatically create folders.

    It's not so much that it is not okay, you can just save yourself a lot of future headaches, by not having neither files nor folders with spaces in them. Personally I spend a lot of time in the command line, and having spaces in any name is a hell sent

    I purposefully use white space in lots of places I want to make sure can support spaces. Something should never brake because of spaces. That said, I frequently name files snake_case or kebab-case cause I’m trained to do that, or it’s just the name of my project
