What Is a Text Editor? And Why Does It Matter to Developers?
If you have Windows, you have access to the default Notepad application installed on your computer.
At some point, you would have used Notepad to replace Microsoft Word. But those who work with code understand that while it looks similar to Microsoft Word in terms of providing a writing space, Notepad can do more.
Most modern systems come with pre-installed basic text editor software like Notepad, and you can use them for more than just taking notes and creating documents.

Give me 5 reasons
Depends on use case, if its about fully fledged code. i would still prefer visual studio code but for all light weight stuff i would rather go with notepad++ any day

?S basically I don't prefer Notepad++ over VS Code, because both are different tools, we can compare both, both tool have different purpose. I recommended Notepad++ for quickly changes in some specific file. Notepad++ is lightweight for quick editing and VS Code is fully loaded from extensions, that use for full project development.

It's widely used by developers for writing and editing code, thanks to features like syntax highlighting, autocompletion, and code navigation. What sets it apart is its extensibility through a vast array of extensions, allowing customization for different programming languages and tools. VS Code includes an integrated terminal, supports version control (e.g., Git), offers robust debugging capabilities, and allows task automation for building and testing. It's cross-platform, meaning it works on Windows, macOS, and Linux, and supports collaboration with features like Live Share. The editor combines the best of both worlds, providing a rich set of features found in Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) while maintaining a lightweight and user-friendly interface.
