fils ou fille
child is used in software to talk about a process or a task, or a class...
So, depending on the object it is related to, you are going to use either fille or fils, but don't use enfant.
Exemple :
la classe fille
le process fils
la tâche fille,
etc ...
The french software developpers aren't politically correct !
