It’s is the most active open source human resource management software. With over 175,000 downloads, OrangeHRM is also fast becoming one of the most widely used HRM applications in the world. We believe in providing users simple to use robust software, and iteratively improving it based on feedback we get from them. This rapid evolving of the product is driven by agile development practices, and weekly product releases to SourceForge

Notepad++ is a generic source code editor (it tries to be anyway) and Notepad replacement written in c++ with win32 API. The aim of Notepad++ is to offer a slim and efficient binary with a totally customizable GUI.

Based on a powerful editing component Scintilla, Notepad++ is written in C++ and uses pure Win32 API and STL which ensures a higher execution speed and smaller program size. By optimizing as many routines as possible without losing user friendlyness, Notepad++ is trying to reduce the world carbon dioxide emissions. When using less CPU power, the PC can throttle down and reduce power consumption, resulting in a greener environment.

Notepad++ was voted “Best Tool or Utility for Developers” in 2008.
