I just installed web-mode. It works, but the indentation seems to be set to 4 spaces by default. How does one properly set it to 2 spaces?

According to the web-mode documentation, you can do that with the following:
(defun my-web-mode-hook ()
"Hooks for Web mode."
(setq web-mode-markup-indent-offset 2)
)
(add-hook 'web-mode-hook 'my-web-mode-hook)
You can also set values for web-mode-css-indent-offset for CSS, and web-mode-code-indent-offset Javascript, Java, PHP, etc.

It might be better to
customize-groupweb-mode and set this. – Christian Stewart Dec 26 '17 at 23:23

This is what worked for me:
(setq indent-tabs-mode nil
js-indent-level 2)

I'm pretty sure these variables don't affect web-mode indentation at all. – DoMiNeLa10♦ Jan 19 at 13:17

the provided solution above did not work for me. What I shared here is what solved this issue for me., actually
(js-indent-level 2)will do the job also – Billal Begueradj Jan 19 at 13:19
