Is the spacing important?

The way they themselves have written the code. Like it is not directly beneath each other but in a kind of a sequence. Like the <html> tag in the top most left corner as starting but the body tag kind of moves towards the middle. Are you supposed to keep a certain distance or can you just write the codes beneat eachother like <html> <head> </head> <body> </body> Rather than how they show <html> <head> </head> <body> This is the first line of text. </body> </html>

You mean indentation? Typing(){ like this} ; Instead of Typing(){like this}; HTML ignores whitespace, paragraphs, spaces and indentation, it's only there so the code is easy to read - oftentimes you'll work on a group project and these are just common practices - it varies from language to language, from dev to dev and from company to company. If you wish you can write all your HTML in a single line, the page will be displayed just the same!

Depends on who/what reads the code.

Spacing is not necessary in HTML. It's only used to increase readability.

Adding: If you're not planing to work with others, you can type it the way you like, SoloLearn is just showing the most common use
