I use single quotes for strings of a single character (or similar, ie. 'M','T','W','Th','F'), and strings with double-quotes in them, and double-quotes for everything else (except for the occasional inline long string, for strings with lots of both quote types or backslashes).

Just curious what are some peoples' conventions for when to use
'single quotes' vs "double quotes" for inline strings. I find myself
randomly using either style, but as they show up differently in my IDE
I feel like I should be assigning some type of meaning to them, such
as internal vs displayed text, short vs long strings, etc.
