I believe there is a tab button on a regular computer or laptop for an indent if that’s what you are using, if there isn’t a tab button, use five spaces. If you are handwriting your work, use the width of three fingers.
After a quote (if it’s dialogue) you should have a capital letter, because it’s the start of a sentence.
Example:
“No!”
“Why not?”
“Because I don’t feel like it!”
“Why not?”
“Dylan, for crying out loud would you just leave it alone!”

See how you indent and put a capital on dialogue.
