Pros

It has really simple UI for editing any kind of text or code. Also it has support for opening most kind of files.

Cons

More shortcuts can be added to the Notepad++ for increasing operational speed.

Pros

I think the most useful feature in Notepad++ are the custom styles, that you can modify to make it even more useful.

Cons

I think some features like dupe comparisons are hidden and should be well exposed, or even inside the normal software without plugins.

Pros

It's easy to use for a beginner and user-friendly.

Cons

Doesn't have debugging capabilities and when processing huge files there is a performance issue in Notepad++.

Pros

You can practice making an application using codes.

Cons

It will took you sometime to generate codes.

Pros

I have been a Notepad user since Grade six 30 or more years ago. Just love growing up with it.

Cons

Maybe two pluses are a bit too much this time. Like an A++.

Pros

What's to love:

Free and open-source: Save your budget and join a vibrant community for support and plugins.
Lightweight and fast: Blazing performance, even on older machines, means smooth sailing for your edits.

Cons

debugging tools: For complex projects requiring in-depth debugging, Notepad++ might fall short compared to full-fledged IDEs with integrated debuggers and breakpoints.

Pros

The best thing about this is that I can run macros and it supports XML. Makes my work faster.

Cons

Notepad++ has just so many features that I feel like I'm not using all that I could. Perhaps I need to take classes to use it to its full potential.

Pros

Notepad++ very simple to use and easy to authenticate. This code editor completely suitable for beginner. Because here you can able to run very set of code separately. this is very perfect editor for all programming language is specially Python.

Cons

It's not comfortable for expert developer it's only suitable for beginners. Source code management is little bit hard.

Pros

Easy to use and install, simple tool, lot of plugins available to analyze, filter and develop code.

Cons

User interface is not that good, Installing some plugins are really difficult and won't install properly.

Pros

Notepad++ is always evolving, and that is what I like the most. It has a great nostalgic community but also it is not lacking functionalities. Even there are some plugins that are specific for Notepad++ and can not be found for other platforms.

Cons

I am a true nostalgic and I love Notepad++, maybe I could complain about the update system, that could be improved.

Pros

It's a quick and easy way to got down an important note.

Cons

There are no cons I love Notepad. It's my go to for notes.

Pros

The best thing about Notepad is that it is simple to use, the code can also be developed with ease on the platform, we can create folders and keep various files into it. We can search for any keywords on the file.We can save all the unsaved files on one go as well.

Cons

The platform is very good to develop code into it. I did not find any drawback on the platform.

Pros

Notepad++ has many languages which are supported which makes it easy to use the notepad++ for website development.

Cons

Notepad++ is probably the one of the best text editor from my views but it only lags in one thing that notepad++ does not have any compilers to execute the code and each and every time i have to copy the code in other editors to execute it

Pros

Its easy to use
its light weight
It handles large data

Cons

More features and more customization needed

Pros

Mostly I like code highlighting, themes, auto backups, plugins, performance, ability to work with huge files, flexible search/replace with regex support.

Cons

Some plugins don't have 64-bit version. NPP is not full replacement of IDE, it has no advanced debug features, but for scripting languages is has all that I need.

Pros

It's filter and search function to replace a string of text or look for hidden codes in normal files

Cons

Some of the plugins don't work and won't get updated.

Alternatives Considered

Reasons for Switching to Notepad++

Pros

I am not a developer, but sometimes have to open files with code. I have often used Notepad++ to edit and merge Markdown files.

It's easy to use and the different colors help visualize what you are working with. There are many features I did not even use, but they never got in the way of the user experience.

Cons

Honestly can't think of anything, as the tool is free and delivered on what I needed it for with no tweaking whatsoever. As such, I hope to offer the perspective of a user who is not necessarily a hardcore techie.

Pros

Ease of use, ability to open nearly everything, search and marking features.

Cons

None, this product does everything I need it to do.

Pros

Better syntax and typing functionality, more features compared to older Notepad, and much improved UI

Cons

This software is only for text editing, anything more complicated than that requires other more advanced softwares.

Pros

Marks all the places of changes in current session.
Remembers all involved files.
Recognizes coding language
Colorizing commands
FREE

Cons

Non so far was found in that application.
