I’m working on my first wheel build and reading a lot of articles about spoke patterns. Some articles say the key spoke (drive-side, to the right of the valve) should be on the outside of the flange, but others say inside of the flange.

Is there a preferred/better flange side for the key spoke?

In my current build my key spoke is on the outside of the flange. The parallel spoke on the other side of the valve is inside the left flange.
