My name is Gabriel, I am a developer from Argentina, and I would love to share with your community a project I have been passionately working on for several years: Vampirio Code.
Vampirio Code is an open-source code editor and lightweight IDE designed to make programming faster and more accessible. It supports syntax highlighting and compilation for multiple languages (C#, C++, JavaScript, Java, HTML, PHP, CMake) and integrates with compilers like MSVC, GNU g++, Clang, Emscripten, Node.js, and XAMPP. My goal was to create something as lightweight as Notepad++ but powerful enough to compile and build programs instantly.
The project is completely free and open source:

What makes this personal for me is not only the technology, but the journey: I started this project because I needed a fast way to test code while studying and working, and over time it grew into something much bigger. However, despite years of effort, very few people have discovered it. To be honest, that has been discouraging—but I still believe it could truly help developers, students, and enthusiasts.
I would be honored if the Y Combinator community could take a look at Vampirio Code. Even if just a handful of people find it useful, it would make all the difference to me.
Thank you very much for your time, and for the inspiration you bring to developers and makers all around the world.
With appreciation, Gabriel Creator of Vampirio Code
