My verdict Although it comes packed with great features and an overall neat layout, Atom is still having lots of difficulties handling large files and keeping a low CPU usage. Strange syntax management sometimes, you get a different color for your variable name depending on what you typed before ( const, let, var etc.).
Most of the core is written in CoffeeScript, but the Github team is transitioning to ES6.Project manager possibilities are a bit limited but plugins can fix that.It’s a browser-based app (runs on Electron), and is a bit slow to load and sometimes to respond. Has some issues handling large repos/folders and CPU usage can go pretty high.Takes some time to get the right setup.Is there an active community of users/programmers feeding the beast? How often does it get updated?Īgain, this post reflects my opinion, so I don't expect everyone to agree. How many plugins/themes/packages are available? How heavy the program is on your hard-drive, on your RAM too? Can it handle large repos without crashing? So in order to make that list up, I considered the following factors for each editor: You're not married to your text editor (sorry Brackets 💔, you made me very happy for a while but I needed some new perspective on things and your syntax highlighting is crap) and you don't have to always work around a missing feature or a crappy CPU usage (you know I'm talking about you Atom).
So it should not be picked lightly and you should even re-consider your choice every once in a while.
