What is Notepad++?

Notepad++ is a cost-free substitute for the standard Notepad, specifically created for modifying source code in multiple programming languages. It runs seamlessly within the Microsoft Windows environment and adheres to the GNU General Public License. Built on the advanced Scintilla editing framework and developed in C++, it utilizes the pure Win32 API and Standard Template Library (STL) to enhance its performance speed and minimize file size. By streamlining various processes while ensuring ease of use, Notepad++ aims to play a part in lowering global carbon dioxide emissions. Its efficiency enables computers to consume less CPU power, leading to operations at reduced energy levels, which contributes to decreased power usage and supports a more sustainable future. This innovative approach highlights the potential of software development to harmonize with environmental sustainability efforts while providing robust editing capabilities.

What is Caret?

Caret brings exceptional text editing features to Chrome OS by utilizing the powerful Ace editing component. This innovation allows users to avoid the complexities of installing a different operating system just to find a competent editor specifically designed for managing local files, making it especially useful for developers. With Caret, you gain access to syntax highlighting for a wide array of programming languages, as well as a selection of standard themes inspired by Ace, including visual styles that echo popular editors like Eclipse, XCode, and Chrome Dev Tools. Once you've tasted the convenience of executing various edits with just a few keystrokes, reverting back to a single cursor interface can feel nearly impossible. The application not only accommodates multiple cursors and selections but also incorporates familiar Sublime keybindings, such as Ctrl-D for selecting the next occurrence. Instead of spending valuable time memorizing shortcuts, the command palette (Ctrl-Shift-P) lets you begin typing your desired command, prompting Caret to perform a fuzzy search through its menu, effortlessly locating and executing the command for you. Consequently, this allows you to focus entirely on your coding tasks without the distraction of reaching for the mouse, thereby significantly boosting your productivity. With each feature meticulously designed to streamline your workflow, Caret positions itself as an indispensable tool for any serious developer on Chrome OS.
