Notepad++ 3rd Most *Loved* Dev Environment
For a second year in a row in the StackOverflow Developer Survey results
Notepad++ is the THIRD Most Popular Development Environment

I think next year, if we all try hard enough, we can make it number one!
Can't help but to link Notepad++ history on wikipedia

- Piskvorrr 8y agoSure, I loved it in 2008. I am surprised that it has stood the test of time...
- glun 8y agoIt says nothing about loved, only popular. The percentages dont add up to 100, so I suppose the question asked which enironments you use regulary. Then it makes sense that NPP scores highly even though its unlikely to be used for serious work.
- Borlands 8y agoAren't the two different but the same? :) Kidding, totally get your point, I've placed it between asterisks to highlight just that
- jcwayne 8y agoI'd like to see what the numbers would look like if all of the JetBrains IDEs were combined. Given the methodology, you can't just add them up, but I suspect, taken as a single entity, they'd be the top. That seems the more appropriate comparison, given that they're all essentially IntelliJ with different plugins.
