Why do u prefer single quotes?

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago

I have no preference! It was to do with Spring/yaml config and some really strange conflict which required the use of single quotes. I'm still a total noob in the world of software dev, so I wouldn't be able to explain why it worked ๐Ÿคฃ

Not Shall330, but double quotes can imply variables in the string in some languages.

PHP for one. "$x" will interpret the variable $x. '$x' does not.
