Atom

Atom is a hackable text editor for the 21st century, built on atom-shell, and based on everything we love about our favorite editors. We designed it to be deeply customizable, but still approachable using the default configuration.

The recommended installation of Atom on Windows used to be using Chocolatey. This is no longer recommended now that the Atom Windows installer & auto-updater exists.

To switch from Chocolatey to the new installer:

  • Run cuninst Atom to uninstall the Chocolatey version of Atom
