So I'm new to spacemacs, and am having a problem with my python tabs. I found this stackoverflow solution to the issue. The scenario he explained is exactly the problem Im having with my python layer, but I don't know how to apply the solution he gave, namely:

If that is the case, you can fix the problem by running

(setq-default python-indent-offset 4)

Where/how exactly do I run the command "(setq-default python-indent-offset 4)"? Do I put it in my spacemacs config? Or some where else?

Thanks!

I found the answer to this question as I was typing it up by way of the related questions (here).

Commands such as these go inside of your init.el config, which is accessed by typing SPC-f e i

Hope this helps all the spacemacs newbies out there. (Feel free anyone to correct me if i'm wrong or don't fully understand)

Just some background info for my answer for those who are curious. The command

(setq-default python-indent-offset 4)

is actually from the lisp family of programming languages. So spacemacs basically uses source code controlled configuration. It could probably have similarly went inside your spacemacs config as well (SPC f e d), although I believe init.el is the proper place for this type of setting
