Both ok in css.
So just code it in company's language.

I personally favour perfect Oxford English in all my coding projects.
But I find it rather silly to enforce a dialect, especially if it is American "English".

I don't think there is a major difference in language variants other than how it affects the keyboard layout.

Whichever the company uses.
Except with "grey" -- it's beautiful with an e.

As long as you're consistent, I don't think It really matters. Use whichever convention your company uses and stick to it.

I would use American English because this is used in more programming languages so it’s an investment in consistency.

@melezorus34 think we both know that was not what he meant. But yeah I don't think it matters because both will work just fine.

But don't let it get to you.
