Jesus, I've never realized how similar it was to Sublime Text.
- azeirah 12y agoIn use, it is very different from Sublime Text. Especially the plugin system is far more powerful. I still prefer Sublime though, Atom is still too immature, and some packages I need don't exist yet or are far too unstable. That, and Atom is just far, faaaar too slow at the moment.
- randomguy7788 12y agocare to list a package that you need to that isnt in atom yet? (i would love to take a crack at building it)
- azeirah 12y agoMost importantly I miss SFTP. There's already a github project for sftp, but at the moment it's almost unusable. https://github.com/jules-r/atom-sftp https://github.com/jules-r/atom-sftp I also really miss bracket highlighter, it's a super small tool, but very useful. You could tackle the bracket highlighter plugin, it might even be possible with pure less/css depending on if Atom already has this built-in. And I miss being able to run a Python REPL in Atom. Python and JS are my main programming languages.
- MozMorris 12y agoI said something similar on seeing Sublime after using TextMate for 5 years.
- azeirah 12y agoI will switch when Atom gets more stable (I still encounter bugs everywhere), and more performant. I have already developed a plugin for Atom, I hate the living shit out of Coffeescript, but I like Atom's API. It's a shame that the spacepen API was built in such a way that it's unbearable to write plugins with it in pure js.
