    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.

                        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.

                                  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.

                                      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, https://www.codeweavers.com/crossover-windows-on-mac?gclid=Cj0KCQjw1MXpBRDjARIsAHtdN-112gvhLAZkviIglgum26ueX7sE3a7M3PEyDDwJ7niNq1Ae56PZQEsaAovYEALw_wcB

                                        which works well, and keeps all of Notepad++'s features, whilst still keeping it lightweight. Highly recommended.
