Double spacing after period is a leftover from using typewriters.
Modern usage is single space after period.
https://www.grammarly.com/blog/punctuation-capitalization/spaces-after-period/
These days most contemporary style guides also recommend using a single space between sentences,
including:
The Chicago Manual of Style
The American Psychological Association (often referred to as “APA”)
Microsoft Manual of Style
The Gregg Reference Manual
The Associated Press Stylebook
