- ChrisClark 10y agoNo, it's a code editor.
- ssully 10y agoNot according to their website https://atom.io https://atom.io "Atom - A hackable text editor"
- tree_of_item 10y agoNo, it's a text editor, like it says on https://atom.io/ https://atom.io/. It doesn't do much for "code" besides draw keywords in pretty colors.
- sooheon 10y agoEven emacs completely shits the bed when it comes to long lines. I love it, but there are things about every tool that requires tradeoffs. I'm willing to deal with bad performance due to decades old technological decisions, in order to gain (to me) unparalleled editing and customization.
