Open source means that, not only is the application free, but the source code for it is also freely available for anyone to download, and modify as they see fit.
This means that, while you can use the application to write code, you cannot use it to test the code. However, it is available for download from a number of locations, and this introduces the risk of accidentally downloading malicious software. It merges the simplicity of Microsoft's own Notepad application, with additional features that many users of Notepad find useful, such as syntax highlighting, and ability to open multiple documents.

This software also supports a wide variety of plugins. The multi-tab interface makes switching documents a breeze. Highlighting with a selection of different colors makes for a more relaxing experience as you're able to more easily find what you're looking for in the code.
This is a big help when you want to choose what to hide and what to display while coding. The style configurator comes with preset colors to change the appearance of the window in case the bright white default gets a bit hard on the eyes after a while. Instead of going into the settings tab, you can also just select the languages tab and search for the language that you'd like to code in from the list in alphabetical order. Looking in the language menu shows you how many languages that the software supports, with over 70 available items. In the General category, you can change the size of icons, darken the color of bars and inactive tabs, and make other customizations to the tab bar.
