      Could the NotePad++ have a design that’s at least a little similar to this?
      I’ve been using it for years, but it’s been years as well since we’ve seen any improvements in the app’s appearance.
      A visual makeover would be really nice.

        Perhaps you want to put some effort into it and say what you like about the screenshot, and what you don’t like about Notepad++ 's current UI…

          In Settings / Preferences you can

          • In the General section hide the menu bar, hide the toolbar, and hide the tab bar.
          • In the Dark Mode section switch to dark mode.

          In Settings / Style Configurator

          • Make the global background color black and enable global background color.
          • Make the global font style Courier New and enable global font.

          That will make Notepad++ look like your screen shot.

          More tweaks are possible such as that you can turn the line numbers on the left edge off.
