#Atom for mac reviews install
I would prefer to install it beside my other programs, to locale it easily. It doesn’t ask where to install, it goes arbitrarily at C:\Users\\AppData\Local\atom. Really heavy for a so-called “text editor”. It is big! Of the IDEs I tried, it is among the biggest: Name I appreciate the clean interface and the attention to details they have bring to the project. The Atom team improved memory consumption, have an eye on responsiveness (I was impressed by their TimeCop package, and the fact they report for each package the time they add to loading), ship lot of plugins with the base editor: delegating to packages is part of their vision of modularity, but they made official packages for the most essential features, and you don’t need to hunt every package implementing base features, saving time. That’s the problem with information found on Internet: it quickly becomes stale… Spoiler: I was seduced, and it becomes my favorite Web IDE… The test of Visual Studio Code was brief, as it didn’t have the base (semi-advanced if you want) features I use all the time: drag’n’drop of code, and column selection. The long closed-source / beta period, the fact the “hackable” editor isn’t coded in JavaScript but in CoffeeScript, the need to add plugins for everything (according to some reviews), the reported slowness and memory hungriness, made me to hesitate to try it… I was also a happy user of Adobe Brackets, with no compelling need to change.īut, Brackets accumulated a number of little annoyances, making me wanting to try other editors. “A hackable text editor for the 21st Century”
