I wanted to start a general discussion about Notepad++ and how people are using it in their daily development work.

Even though there are many modern IDEs available, I still find Notepad++ very useful for quick edits, log file checking, and lightweight scripting.

Some questions I’d love to hear your thoughts on:

What are your most used features or plugins in Notepad++?
Do you still use it alongside VS Code or other IDEs?
Any hidden tricks, shortcuts, or productivity hacks you rely on?
How do you use it in your development or data tasks?

Would be great to learn how others are using it in different workflows.
