Atom is a text editor that's modern, approachable, yet hackable to the core—a tool you can customize to do anything but also use productively without ever touching a config file. Atom comes pre-installed with four UI and eight syntax themes in both dark and light colors. If you can't find what you're looking for, you can also install themes created by the Atom community or create your own.
Atom helps you write code faster with a smart, flexible autocomplete. Easily browse and open a single file, a whole project, or multiple projects in one window.
Using the default plugins, the following languages are supported in some aspect as of v1.5.1: HTML, CSS, Less, Sass, GitHub Flavored Markdown, C/C++, C#, Go, Java, Objective-C, JavaScript, JSON, CoffeeScript, Python, PHP, Ruby, Ruby on Rails, shell script, Clojure, Perl, Git, Make, Property List (Apple), TOML, XML, YAML, Mustache, Julia & SQL.
Atom 1.23 notable changes:
- Atom packages can register a URI handler function that will be invoked any time the user visits a URI that starts with atom://package-name/
- Hide specific commands in the command palette
- Improved the performance of multi-cursor editing operations by restructuring event APIs to call their callbacks only once per keystroke
- The GitHub package now never locks the index, making it easier to use the CLI or other Git tools with Atom open in the background [full release notes]
