I recently discovered ‘Brackets’ by Adobe; it’s excellent. It’s not on the AppStore, but if you google it, you’ll find it easily. Completely free, and hundreds of optional extensions for themes, fonts etc to add on. I highly recommend it.

Try ATOM

Hello,
I am actually working on porting Notepad++ to macOS. If you have any coding experience with Objective-C or Swift, it would be appreciated if you could help me. -

I like Atom, but Notepad++ is more lightweight so I prefer it. If you need any help in developing a version for mac, I offer my knowledge and my time.

@Meta-Chuh
just curious, any progress on that? :-) -
@Meta-Chuh , Yea…WTF…that tantalizing posting was from mid Oct 2018! :)

BBEdit from Bare Bones Development. It’s free to use. Pay for extra features. Not a large expense if you decide to purchase it. Not an endorsement, just a happy user.

Opensource CotEditor: https://coteditor.com/

I just downloaded and tried CotEditor.
I highly recommend it. It’s just what I’ve been looking for.
Small, lightweight, fast, edit plain text and highlight syntax for multiple languages, highlight occurrences of a symbol, column select just like NPP.
Awesome -
I’ve been using Notepad++ on my Mac for years - I use CrossOver,
