What was Atom good for, when compared with something like Visual Studio Code? I recall reading about typing latency and it seemed to come out as one of the slower options: https://pavelfatin.com/typing-with-pleasure/ https://pavelfatin.com/typing-with-pleasure/ I guess it would have occupied a similar place as Brackets, another vaguely similar project? https://brackets.io/ https://brackets.io/ Then again, with how popular VSC has become and with how insanely many extensions there are for it, using any other editor feels a bit... counterproductive at times? Personally, i'm using the following: - CLI: nano (vim works too, I just like the simplicity more) - Simple text editing: Notepad++ or similar (usually whatever is on the system on *nix) - Some scripting, but nothing too serious: Visual Studio Code - Development in larger and more complex codebases: JetBrains products (e.g. IntelliJ IDEA, WebStorm and so on)
