Kite vs Notepad++: What are the differences?

What is Kite? Your programming copilot. Augment your coding environment with all the internet’s programming knowledge. Your editor and web browser don't know anything about each other, which is why you end up continuously switching between them. Kite bridges that gap, bringing an internet-connected programming experience right alongside your editor.

What is Notepad++? Free source code editor and Notepad replacement. Notepad++ is a free (as in "free speech" and also as in "free beer") source code editor and Notepad replacement that supports several languages. Running in the MS Windows environment, its use is governed by GPL License.

Kite can be classified as a tool in the "Tools for Text Editors" category, while Notepad++ is grouped under "Text Editor".
