Atom vs. Rons Data Edit

Atom is great for developers looking for a completely hackable experience. There is a ton of plugins available to you, and you can really build an editor that matches your own personal taste. The performance is also pretty neat and does not impact your CPU as much as the competition.

• Atom is highly customizable and allows for various themes and extensions that can make your code easier to read.
• Atom has many code hinting features that allow users to write faster and integrate with services likeLINT that can clean up your code once your done to meet your internal teams style choices.
• It's very fast and manages projects well - Accessing other files within a related folder(s) is very easy and intuitive.
• It's free!

• Due to some default settings, when I opened the file in Atom and commit it on Git it shows almost every line is changed so my PR is looking too big/ugly.
• I think omitting the empty spaces should not be the default setting.
• Performance needs some attention.

Well Atom is open source so the re-new is a no brainer. The only way I would stop using Atom is if the developers somehow made it not function well. Or, if the project got forked to a commercial version or something. Or, there could be the case that development stops or that it was not updated on this or that platform

I give Atom a 9 because it is one of the most modern text editors built with JavaScript intentionally to allow the editor to be changed and modified with custom functionality that a team may need. I think I would otherwise give atom an 8 due to support, but it gets a 9/10 because of the extensibility/plugin capability.

Atom has an active forum and a Slack group where you can ask technical questions. Occasionally, the authors will pop in to answer a few questions here and there, but most of the time, its other helpful users who will assist you. Though they aren't the most knowledgeable, they are at least timely.

As for plugin support, that differs with each plugin, but as I mentioned before, many plugins are no longer maintained.

Just download and install

Atom is incredibly lighter than Dreamweaver, of course it doesn't have the tools DW provides in terms of preview and clicking an element to be taken to the code... but for small web pages this is not necessary.

Atom is more similar to Notepad++ and the very popular vs code... but I prefer it to vs code because of the themes (although i found recently some new additions that are similar to my favourite) and just the feeling when navigating/typing is not the same, it's very hard to describe... but it just doesn't feel "right"

• ROI can be said as neutral because eventually, we have to switch to another text editor because of many limitations of Atom for large code.
• In starting stage of the project, everything was fine and things were happening as expected
• Overall it has been a great experience using Atom in my organization but many challenges were faced so that's something Atom should work on.
