How can it "improve as time goes on"? The developers chose a technology stack that suited them the developers, but which didn't suit the end users of the software.
This happens sometimes when developers make business decisions.
Any improvements will be in the 20%-30% range. Meanwhile, Sublime Text is 10-100 times faster. Atom is dead, in the long term.
- matthewmacleod 12y agoThat's ill-informed. 1. Atom is an open-source developer tool. 'Business decisions' (whatever they are) should take a back seat to 'developer decisions'. 2. The technology stack is not a long-term constraint on performance. It's perfectly feasible that performance will increase substantially over time. 3. Sublime text is not '10-100' times faster. I'm a massive Sublime fan, and won't be using Atom. But you're spreading FUD.
- heinrich5991 12y agoUser experience should definitely be more important than the technology stack. Also, the technology stack is a constraint on performance now, and now is what is important.
