Help Installing Notepad ++

[rahul4488]

I recently moved to Macbook pro M1 and being a developer coming from Windows, Notepad++ was an integral part of my life.
Can someone please guide me on how to get it onto Mac..
Read some info online and tried with Wine Bottler but I'm getting the below error

###BOTTLING### Create .app...
###BOTTLING### Enabling CoreAudio, Colors, Antialiasing and flat menus...

Notepad ++ alternatives on macOS https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/an-application-similar-to-notepad-on-mac.2345965/post-31943089

I doubt you will get it to work in WineBottler. Maybe it will work in PlayOnMac https://www.playonmac.com/en and will definitely work in CrossOver https://www.codeweavers.com/crossover

You can install Notepad++ in Crossover directly, and it works perfectly on M1 Macs.
