About

Atom is a hackable text editor for the 21st century, built on Electron, and based on everything we love about our favorite editors. We designed it to be deeply customizable, but still approachable using the default configuration. A text editor is at the core of a developer’s toolbox, but it doesn't usually work alone. Work with Git and GitHub directly from Atom with the GitHub package. Create new branches, stage and commit, push and pull, resolve merge conflicts, view pull requests and more—all from within your editor. The GitHub package is already bundled with Atom, so you're ready to go! Atom works across operating systems. Use it on OS X, Windows, or Linux. Search for and install new packages or create your own right from Atom. Atom helps you write code faster with a smart and flexible autocomplete. Easily browse and open a single file, a whole project, or multiple projects in one window.

About

Powerful and customizable text editor with support for a huge list of programming languages and developed as open source. Making multiple changes at once, swapping pieces of code, and a lot more is made trivial with TextMate’s easy way to add multiple insertion points. Select what you want to search, what you want to search for, and TextMate will present the results in a way that makes it easy to jump between matches, extract matched text, or preview desired replacements. See what files have changes in the file browser view, what lines have changes in the editor view, bring up a diff of the current file’s changes, commit a subset, TextMate supports it all for all the major version control systems. One file mixing languages? Projects using different build systems? Third party code with different formatting preferences? TextMate can handle it all by associating detailed scope selectors with key shortcuts, settings, etc.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • - It has some unique features that allow developers to work and collaborate together. - It supports syntax highlighting and multiple numbers for programming languages through packages. - It has seamless integration with GitHub. - It can be customized easily by applying themes and plugins.
  • • Lightweight, which is a boon for small systems • Great GUI and interface, and allows you to customize it with external themes. • Can write code easily, and has auto-completion features, mostly for front-end development. • Integrates with Github which is helpful • It is open source, hence very customizable

Cons

  • - It does not have a proper comprehensive documentation for beginner developers to get started with the application. - There are occasional performance issues.
  • Atom takes some time to load initially, but otherwise I haven't had any problem with it.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • All good for code editing. Syntax highlighting for every language I ever tried, code folding, custom tabs/spaces. Updates are easy and it gets syntax packages automatically if you open/save a new file type. Hybrid view of markdown, special characters and formatting both shown.

Cons

  • It's not an IDE, you won't get much help beyond auto closing brackets and quotes.
