Developed and delivered a data privacy enhancement for the notepad-plus-plus/nppPluginList repository by introducing the NppStripIpAndHost plugin, which automatically removes IP addresses and hostnames from text files and server logs to support privacy and compliance requirements. The work involved plugin development and integration with the existing Notepad++ plugin ecosystem, ensuring compatibility with 64-bit environments through updates to the pl.x64.json configuration. Leveraging skills in software engineering and data privacy, the developer demonstrated a privacy-by-design approach, collaborating cross-functionally to co-author the feature and enable users to reduce sensitive data exposure when handling logs and text within Notepad++.
