Love working with atom using this theme in coffeeshops, making people think I'm a top hacker, when in reality I'm just stuck with css classes or something. Equally stupid.25

When I was a kid, I used Dreamweaver and my mother would watch me doing things and she used to say "Oh, my dear there are lots of icons and buttons!!! How do you manage that? How do you know which one is for what purpose? You are really brilliant."
And now I use Atom IDE and she says "This looks very easy. Technology has evolved so much that you don't have to click so many buttons and just write simple lines, just as simple as writing letters and the software does the rest of the things. These softwares have done a brilliant job."
Seriously the technology has changed (and my mother too) !!!11 -
This is not a rant, but I just wanted to share some good news! My brother and I have launched an app called Programmer’s Music. It contains our favourite music tracks and tracks suggested by some of our developer/creative colleagues. It’s for listening to music while coding. We have also integrated Pomodoro time management method in it. It’s ad-free and FREE. :) Please check out the app at https://promusic.tech/2mJrw8A. Feel free to leave an honest feedback.
Please feel free to leave us a message with your favourite tracks and we will add them. Please share it, follow on Twitter and/or like our Facebook page. Thank you so much!
Thank you, everyone.

Tried to install an existing web dev project in Windows 10:
- Install Atom IDE and trying to clone git repo
- Git missing, installing Git for Windows
- Installing Node (so far so good!)
- npm install
- Python missing (???), installing Python
- Ruby (????????) missing, installing Ruby
- .NET Libraries missing, installing .NET 4.0 for the 100th time
- Visual Studio Libraries for C++ 2008 missing (now you're just messing with me mate), installing 4GB of Visual Studio Libraries
- [drumroll sound]
- .....
- npm install breaks with fatal error
- Git for Windows can't be found anymore
Switched to Ubuntu out of frustration:
- Installing Atom IDE
- Installing NodeJS
- Cloning git repo
- npm install
- project is running

Honestly, after using sublime, atom, brackets, WebStorm, and so many other IDEs/Text Editors, VSCode outshines all of them ❤️27

Intel's new CPUs are faster, so your text editor can be based on a slower version of chrome, with a even slower bloated JavaScript framework. Congratulations!7

At laptop, building a complex task and have my Atom editor opened. Client arrived at my desk.
"That's why the development is so slow. You have to paint all those words."3 -

Why does it have to be so slow? It's so pretty though. Mesmerizing even and I can never go back to sublime now.

Atom is free.
Visual Studio Code is free.
Jetbrains IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate is $500 per year.
Atom has Teletype.
Visual Studio / Code has LiveShare.
Jetbrains IntelliJ has "Can you send me over the file and I'll try to figure out the issue without any sort of context?"27 -

I found a new hobby: coding in many text editors (or IDEs) at the same time, because "I want to find out which one is better" (I don't know why I'm actually doing this, but I can't stop)
Wait, it's not a new hobby ... I already did this with C++ with using atom and Visual Studio at the same time, then I installed Clion too and VS and Clion were both running along with atom ...question gedit text editors brackets notepad++ vscode eclipse clion intellij wordpad atom visual studio31 -

Stumbled upon VS Code recently, an open source freeware from Microsoft. And as a VIM fan, I must say that it blew me away with its sleek nature.
Been a user of Sublime and Atom in the past as well, but VS code surely stands out.9 -
Playing around with Atom and I'm pretty impressed with it so far. Might keep using it and see if it becomes my new favorite code editor :)19

I have rather been enjoying MS Visual Studio Code of late. Ten years ago when I was deep in my Linux phase the thought of anything Microsoft would make me burst into flames.

.... And it appears my Atom has Entered the Matrix. Full time.
In other news, I successfully completed the E-Commerce App I was working on, even though that Stripe Verification was a ball ache and the bane of the entire project giving me a stupid bug in jQuery whereby it was infinite looping over adding the token and not actually submitting the card charge. Somehow changing my button from using an id to using a class fixed my problem :/ (# -> .)11 -

Have you heard about the Embrace, Expand and Extinguish idealogy? lets think about it:
Javascript 5 (embrace) -> Typescript and Class syntax to Javascript 6 (extend) -> JS (extinguish) with WebASM.
Atom/Electron (embrace) -> Atom fork named "VSCode" (extend) -> Atom (extinguish) as it was developbed by Github company.
NodeJS (embrace) -> incompatible Node Windows fork with IE/Edge JS engine "Chakra" (extend) -> NodeJS (extinguish soon) with chaos of Typescript, Javascript 6 and Github.
"R" lang (embrace) -> incompatible SQL Server 2016 R lang extension (extend) -> R lang (extinguish soon).
Android -> CyanogenMod (embrace) -> CyanogenMod (extinguish) as M$ "sponsored" Cyanogen Inc to destroy CyanogenMod
Linux (prejudge) -> sponsors RedHat, Debian, SuSE, Alpine and Canonical/Ubuntu (embrace), forces unstable backdoored "systemd" -> Linux (extinguish soon)

WHY Atom, when I explicitly select a suggestion do you NOT ACTUALLY AUTOCOMPLETE THE SUGGESTION ?
I have configured so many fucking settings to try to avoid this why is it that I have to explicitly select my option 3 and 4 times before you ACTUALLY auto fill it.
I use you specifically FOR the auto complete function and you FUCK ME OVER ON IT.
I can just not seem to find a text editor or IDE that doesn't annoy the shit out of me one way or the other7 -

Do you think I should give Atom another shot or stick with VSCode?
I've tried it several times but I always found it sluggish, slow in everything and bugged. VSCode is so much smoother and fast.
But damn Atom is so much more good looking, especially with nebula theme.
It's like choosing between the nice, decent-looking guy and the rude but definitely good looking fuckboy chad10 -
I decided to work with #atom lately, and I made a fresh install on a VM to test some packages outside my real dev machine.
Just occurred to me that "by #GitHub" now means by #microsoft... So MS now really controls the IDE market from any possible angle.16 -
Mfw you try out Atom and it crashes the moment you open anything even slightly big. Then you try to close it out and reopen it but it decides it should start off right where you left it-suspended in time... doing absolutely nothing.
On another note, it looks beautiful, has many extensions, and is highly customizable but it gets bogged down so quickly.8 -
Latest Atom with Electron 1.6 seems to be pegging multiple CPUs and maxing out ram and swap. Looks like I should start trying different editors again. :(12

When Atom is just not quite there on the performance front but Sublime Text 3 has been in beta since 2013..... I just want a good editor with good plugins!!9
-
By habit I did the hotkey for Chrome developer tools in Atom by accident and the chrome dev tools popped up on the side.5

I recently realized that I've been using 2 text editors and 1 IDE pretty much at the same time for different purposes.
Atom -> Code Beautification (atom-beautify is simply the best)
VSCode -> for actual coding (blazing fast and quite good completions)
Webstorm -> cleanup the code, optimize imports
And that made me thing why is it so hard to have all these things in one application (be it a core feature or a plugin/extension). And then I realized smth, only webstorm more has all the features built in, but I don't need/want full IDE for web development (Angular / React) alas it has great features like component automatic imports etc, but not a deal breaker.
So I am having a dilllema. On one hand, Atom has everything I need (especially atom-beautify, my OCD is at peace) except for proper completions (partially solved with extensions) and terminal integrations. On the other hand, VSCode is very fast, has good code assistance but half-broken import completions and terrible code beautification even with extensions such as jsbeautify that require you to have a separate file for each project instead of it being an editor setting/plugin like in Atom.
/* insert joke here */ When will Atom and VSCode go super Saiyan mode and become "Atomized Visual Code" :P I wanna stop bunny hopping between editors!2 -
Saw Atom 1.18 integrating github into the editor. It works nice feeling very excited thinking how it's gonna make things more efficient.

*Continues using terminal git cause he is too lazy for change.*2 -
Yeah, I can see you guys are also commenting (t.memeing) about this so may as well jump in the fun too.

Guys, we need talk raw performance for a second.
Fair disclaimer - if you are for some reason intel worker, you may feel offended.
I have one fucking question.
What's the point of fucking ultra-low-power-extreme-potato CPUs like intel atoms?
Okay, okay. Power usage. Sure. So that's one.
Now tell me, why in the fucking world anyone would prefer to wait 5-10 times more for same action to happen while indeed consuming also 5-10 times less power?
Can't you just tune down "big" core and call it a day? It would be around.. a fuckton faster. I have my i7-7820HK cpu and if I dial it back to 1.2Ghz my WINDOWS with around lot of background tasks machine works fucking faster than atom-powered freaking LUBUNTU that has only firefox open.
tested i7-7820hk vs atom-x5-z8350.
opening new tab and navigating to google took on my i7 machine a under 1 second, and atom took almost 1.5 second. While having higher clock (turbo boost)
Guys, 7820hk dialled down to 1.2 ghz; 0.81v
Seriously.
I felt everything was lagging. but OS was much more responsive than atom machine...
What the fuck, Intel. It's pointless. I think I'm not only one who would gladly pay a little bit more for such difference.
i7 had clear disadvantages here, linux vs windows, clear background vs quite a few processes in background, and it had higher f***ng clock speed.
TL;DR
Intel atom processors use less power but waste a lot of time, while a little bit more power used on bigger cpu would complete task faster, thus atoms are just plain pointless garbage.
PS.
Tested in frustration at work, apparently they bought 3 craptops for presentations or some shit like that and they have mental problems becouse cheapest shit on market is more shitty than they anticipated ;-;
fucking seriously ;-;16 -
I feel like I'm the only person in the world who likes Visual Code from Microsoft as my default editor, I'm considering scrapping Atom for it.5

Anyone here use atom? I tried switching to it from sublime, gave it a solid 2 weeks but had to give up on it. Just painfully slow, regularly taking 5-10 seconds to open a work project and let me start working on it and would continue to be slow whilst working.
Back to sublime now, so much better...21 -

I'm currently on Atom and wanna try out VSCode. Having looked at the settings (Holy fu**, are there many of 'em) I feel kind of lost.28 -

VSCode
Its:
- Sublime but without the pricetag
- Atom but without the crashing
- netbeans but without the Java
- ideaj but without the load times
- vim without the elitism / esoteric design
- cross platform
The only downside to me is that its electron.9 -

I love the speed and lack of bugs in Sublime, especially when dealing with large files but its so shit in the themes department imo.7

I think microsoft buying github will probably be the death of atom editor ... not that I would mind vscode was always way better then atom 🤷7

Just love the customizability of phpstorm. I can work as minimal i need !

My eyes don't feel comfortable on some dark-schemed IDEs or text editors. But when it comes to Sublime & Atom, I like them dark.4

I find lately my biggest challenge as a developer is sticking with one editor. Currently it is a battle between Sublime Text 3 and Atom. Not a battle where I switch every few days. This is a battle where I find myself switching at least once a day for no real reason.16

Github rewrites its Desktop Client using Electron!!!
Along with this, GitHub has also introduced a new beta of atom sporting out-of-the-box Git and Github integration.

Continued from https://devrant.io/rants/918357
Made the switch
I think I'll be saying bye to Atom. VSCode seems to be far more snappier.
The transition was pretty painless too. Vim and eslint integration seems to work just fine.3 -
I posted a !rant a couple of days ago saying I started to get the hang of vim to change from atom (which is a memory asshole)... So after trying to actually work using vim I noticed I am far more productive using atom, so I gave VS Code a chance... Wow, it's like having atom but only consuming 80mbs tops. I think I decided what will be my default ide.
Still glad I know understand vim, I will still use it but not as my default ide.15 -
I'm torn between Sublime 3, Atom and VScode and no one can give me some proper pro's and cons. Not even me...12

What the fuck is going on with atom in my desktop?!!?!?
Everytime I open it it starts comparing every single file on my pc with my github. It starts using 99% of my memory and fuck is it frustrating. I decided to just learn vim, which is cool, although I still miss managing windows with the mouse, and probably will try VS sometime in the future. I really wanted to like atom but I can't stand how slow it is compared to vim right now, even when the github shit doesn't happen.14 -
I realize that people are breaking the rules. No longer social distance themselves and wear mask.

Do you know a good application to code like software program Visual Studio code, Atom and others ?12

Well, atom won't open. SO, what's the next free editor I will learn to use, configure exactly right, and then need to abandon because it won't fucking open for no apparent reason?
Sure, I could become a certified Atom expert and learn exactly what is going on, but I HAVE FUCKING WORK THAT IS DUE WHAT THE FUCKING HELL
Wishing I could afford PyCharm, maybe I will just try the trial since EVERY editor I have ever used eventually becomes unusable at some point.22 -

God I hate vscode
it keeps giving me a pop-up telling me I don't have a php environment setup
I have no interest in using php. that's why I don't.
and now apparently the git interface got changed. I don't want stupid random changes
and frequently in some part of the IDE it'll say error but then not show up where the error file is for example
Microsoft bought GitHub and all the atom people said they were gonna kill atom and push their vscode, everyone called them paranoid, Microsoft released a statement saying they weren't gonna kill atom. a year later they killed atom. so now I have to use this stupid vscode shit. and if you go anywhere asking for an IDE suggestion and you mention "not Microsoft" the mods will literally ban you for "being political"
how about I just don't want a bloated goddamned IDE that I don't control
in atom I could just uninstall other languages packages. actually atom didn't even come with them, they were optional. vscode, like all other shitty ass IDEs, is increasingly coming with everything and the kitchen sink -- and only one version, Microsoft's, so if you don't like it fuck you
atom was so good because it was modular. they fucking killed it. and we're back to bloated shit. I guess because if shit is bloated you can argue "we need all this data from you" and so they fucking bloat to justify themselves15 -
Which editor among atom or vscode is best?
I'm bit confused about this.
I mainly prefer Atom, but want to know what vscode can do a more better?11 -
Since MS wants to aquire Github which owns Atom, what do you guys think would happen to one of the largest rival of VSCode?
Would they merge them? Or github guys would separate it from the company before the sale?1 -

I decided to make some new icons for Atom editor (the launcher/executable ones), because I liked the vscode-icons project.
Made the repo on GitHub and decided to automate making the icons for different OS using Travis CI.
Started writing the Python Script for Travis.
My google queries:
How to generate icons for Linux?
I can use SVG or generate a PNG, many libraries available. 👍👍
How to generate icons for Windows?
Generate PNGs of various sizes and pack in an .ico file. Easy enough
So far so good.
How to generate icons for Mac?
Mac needs a .icns file, a package of PNGs of various sizes. Libraries available but can be done on OSX only. 😫😫
Then I think, what OS does Travis use?
Oh, I can specify macOS in it 😁😁😁
Starts the build 😎😎
Travis doesn't support Python on macOS
😑😑😑😑 -
Dear Atom,
I'm sorry, but it's time. I know that we had many great times together, but I will be switching to Visual Studio soon. It's not your fault, you can blame Microsoft if you want. It's just that Visual Studio will have better git integration. And the fact that you will probably be cancelled. I hope you the best. Make the best out of the little time you still have.
Sincerely,
TomW1 -
Legend says there is an Atom installation where the "Open empty editor at start" option actually works.
I don't know why but it never worked for me. First the editor always opened a specific file I hadn't edited for days, now it always restores the previous session and opens TWO fucking tabs with the welcome page.
Back to Vim.7 -

Is electron somehow above that? Is clicking the two a extra buttons to choose a second drive too mainstream nowdays? What? Why? I use Atom, VS code, postman, cycligent, boostnote among others . The idea is good, the apps look beautiful and responsive. But bloated as fuck. Atom alone takes 1.4Gb! And I am ok with it! Really I am! But why the fuck not let me install it in a drive where I have 70% of space free and instead make me use my crammed SSD? Why? WHY?1

Hearing a lot about Microsoft trying to acquire Github here on devRant.
Made me think, if this happens what will happen to atom?
Development will likely continue but then you would have two electron based, open source code editors both by Microsoft and Github. Probably not that much different from now, but still feels awkward...
Any thoughts? I love both editors and use them near daily. I just hope Atom was more performant and as actively developed as vscode.10 -
Recommend me a lightweight operating system for about 6 years old laptop with Intel Atom. 'nuff said I guess...21

I currently use atom, but what major differences does it have to other text editors like vs code etc. that would make you prefer said editors?3

I've not used linters on sublime text so far. And now struggling to find a good linter for sublime for writing React JS.
And I am not comfortable to move to atom or VSCode.
Can anyone suggest me some good linters?1 -
I want to create something using Electron, just because I thought it would be fun(web-development background). Anyone else using it? Any tips? I thought it would be a great exercise to dig through the Atom IDE code, as what I want to make needs some similar features, what do you think?5

The most annoying question, that has been asked many times through centuries.. here it goes again:
What Editor would you choose for Web, React.js, React Native and Flutter on Mac:
Atom || VSCode8 -
So I just got an email from Github, saying they created a new package for Atom called Teletype.
I quote: "Teletype (beta) for Atom lets developers share their workspace with team members and collaborate on code in real time."
Wondering what the devRant community thinks about this new feature!

Genymotion for testing Android apps, Android Studio to write them, and Atom Text Editor for random coding.

Any good rust-IDE's out there? There's an atom-plugin that's ok imo and i found an eclipse-based IDE, but for that i have to set up a shitton of things.
How do you develop in rust?13 -
My favorite tools:
IDEs : Jetbrain's IDEs intelliJ, pyCharm, ...etc.
The only exception is Visual Studio for C++ ( for no reason but I haven't tried Clion yet)
Text editor: atom
GIT GUI: Gitkraken, or just a terminal
Music player: Spotify -

Not a rant, just wondering.
What's your favorite editor (not IDE) out there?
- Atom
- Sublime Text
- Visual Studio Code
- Notepad++
...
- nano
- Other (name it)
I'm trying Atom Editor, I've been a fan of Sublime Text for a couple of years. Tried VS Code, not a chance. Any suggestions?27 -
Well this changes with time and types of projects but for now my favourite is atom especially with Babel for writing JSX for React
-
After start reading on devrant I noticed that somehow people are using vim and emacs quite a bit. Why are you using them m? Are IDEs or Editors like Atom/Sublime not far more sophisticated than CLI Editors?11
-
Anbody noticed, now Microsoft is going to own two popular text editors. Visual Studio Code and Atom Editor.1
-
ci tools in cooperation with git servers because i work on different machines and only one of them has the full development environment. (every other machine has only an editor (atom or vi) and git when it comes to dev tools)
-
Favorite IDE: Xcode
Text Editor: Atom
Reasons: Xcode is was I was “first” introduced to on my own.
Atom just seems really smooth and I enjoy using it.1 -
I see people working with Atom. I assume none of them are dealing with even moderately large files. Codepen has better performance.6

Installing VS Code on Ubuntu. Anybody got some plugins/themes they can suggest? I usually use Brackets; Atom for React3 -
Why every single modern-looking code editor built with electron? I just want a code editor that has a good UI and doesn't run as a web page.2

Just installed Atom to try out. Has a decent package ecosystem. Just found vim-mode-plus. Do you believe in love at first sight? 😉1 -
Open file with Atom on remote server via FTP.
Edit at will, hit save and BOOM. Now you have an empty file. -
IDE: Visual Studio. Overkill of an IDE yet very very useful for everything.
Text Editor: Code and Atom. Although both of these text editors eat more resources than Sublime (especially Atom), what I love about both editors are the available packages and the monthly updates. -
That moment when you save a file in atom and ie starts up with console open, a paused atom screenshot and an error message :/1

For Mac users: what apps are pinned on your dock?
Mine are: Finder, Launchpad, Chrome, devRant (Arc Welder), Mail, Atom, XCode, Android Studio and Messages.17 -
I installed VS Code a few days ago and I'm really struggling to see all of these apparent massive benefits over Atom.
I have a pretty decently specced machine so performance is never an issue.
Is there something else I'm missing?5 -
Neovim and atom. I can't really pick one. Neovim is great for smaller config files and it's really fast. Also, I usually have terminal window open.
On the other hand, I like atom because of its looks and I prefer to use it for bigger projects. I also use it to edit js, html and css files. -
So I just changed from SublimeText to Atom and so far it's pretty neat. What do you guys think about Atom?22
-
So I'm currently having a love/hate relationship with Atom... I love that it only has what I want and nothing more, but I hate that it lacks a lot of basic features like automatically adding the closing tags to my html, and the only beautifying package I can find defaults to two spaces instead of my usual 4 and I can't find how to change it.
Does anyone know how to change the spacing on the beautify package? And does anyone know a package that will auto close my html tags?7 -
i am starting to think that programmers are stupidest semi-intelligent mother fuckers on the planet... simple shit gets turned into spider web of over complicated nonsense ... which simply means if u cant make shit simple... U R ONE DUMB MOTHER FUCKER...
ps. i just tried changing tab from 4 to 3 in atom... those are some dump mother fuckers there...1 -

Can't play CSGO ( and thousands of many other games ).
Atom, Sublime, Eclipse and intelIJ is still not supported.
Can't use it for writing programs
Can't run a local server and use it for development.
It still can't fly besides having flight mode -
to lazy to open atom, open git, to commit and push to add/test some features on my website, just used the chrome console to add and test new stuff 🤷♂️

Anyone got any favorite Atom themes/plugins?
Mine right now is HTML Live Preview, just to save myself from having to refresh every 10 seconds 🙃3 -
there was this one time I could not find the CSS to change background color of a template I was using while in sublime... after hours of trying I accidentally "opened with atom" and there it was!! That was the end of me n sublime3

Little questions that can act as a survey,
I have a dual is tablet running Windows and Android the hardware is a Intel atom with 2gb ram and 32gb flash. I'm thinking of offering one of my OS's up but I want a second opinion.
What to kill windows 10 or Android 4.4.4 -
Apparently, I am using everything in light theme, from devRant to Atom.
I don't know why but code looks a lot better now.4 -
Call out to all web developers out there... what IDEs is everyone using?
I started with notepad++ a few years ago then moved onto atom... I’ve tried a few others but never really got attached to them. Is there any other, anyone thinks is better than atom?10 -

Why the fucking ctrl Q on Atom close all the windows without confirmation??
On an azerty keyboard, the letter Q is just on the left of the letter S.. I wanted do a ctrl S !!4 -
Why the fuck can we have nice things? Atom was a perfect match for my work, extremely practical and the extensibility of it was amazing.
MS deciding to starve that project from resources is very shitty.3 -
I use Atom. It's a basic coding program similar to Notepad++ and Sublime Text but more minimalistic.
Link to it: http://atom.io -
Recommended packages for Atom for PHP, HTML, CSS, MySQL development to make my life easier? Autocomplete, preview, etc.?5
-
So I'd like to see some opinions on different editors and IDEs.
I personally use Atom, and I really dig all the functionality and packages it has available. What do you use and why? Hear a lot of suggestions for VSCode and the like... and it looks cool but does it do anything Atom can't? They all seem fairly similar to me in the long run if you take the time to set them up the way you like.14 -
I wasted fukcing 30 minutes to find out the right editor for plantuml on os x. I do not like atom because it eats up memory, and brackets was not ready to install plantuml extension. in the end, I used atoms to finish a five minute job. #FML
It seems, mostly we waste our time in deciding which weapon to use !!! Any one who faced the same issues ???2 -
Thanks @Siddharthkr93, atom really saved me from the blue screen of death, compliments of Microsoft1

Am having a problem with my pycharm ide i am new to programming i am learning python using pycharm as my ide but wen i try importing openpyxl it always gives me an error message so i was thinking of switching to atom pleas i need help9

For a while I used vim or whatever plain text editor nano gedit but I got used to features like autocomplete and syntax highlighting etcetera when forced to use things like an eclipse and IntelliJ slash Android Studio. But when I'm usually using Atom these days. But I am increasingly more frustrated that my favorite language python does not have my favorite features in the editor. I guess I need to consider paid editors or at least just try some more free ones but I really don't want to invest the time. Once again I think I've convinced myself to just enjoy the nice things about atom. At this point i like it better than komodo7
-
I'm more partial to Sublime Text. Never got into the Atom craze, and always wanted to be more vim-ish.
But more and more people seem to be into VScode for some reason. Need to check that out soon.1 -
I'm trying to get started in making language syntax packages for Atom, mostly for two languages that are not so used as of yet though (Lisaac and S-SIZE), but I wonder: does one really have to upload the package to npm in order to be able to use it in Atom yourself?

Java and scala development:Intellij+gradle
Git: Gitlab + gitkracken

Scripted languages (most favourite to least ): Brackets(#1), Sublime, vscode, Atom
Others: Docker + Portainer, Visual studio (when playing with C#), geany for light works -
Building atom on an RPI 2 with this fuckstickle of a package manager is a bloody nightmare. Works without issue on Raspbian Jessie, implodes into a spectacular clusterfuckeroni on Raspbian Stretch.
Been on it since yesterday, 10/10 weekend saved. -
