— Not gotten properly into it yet though

I do like Atom and it takes a lot to get me to switch, but recently I was working on a C++ project with it's own make format from GCC, and Atom was fighting with it. I wound up having to trash all my changes with git checkout

— Goddamn

— It was a total corrupted mess by the time I decided to trash the changes

— Ugh

— For web dev it has been great though

— I would probably continue to use it for that, and just write C++ in an IDE

— Atom is a browser masquerading as an editor :P

— Yep haha

— Whether thats a positive thing or a negative thing depends on how often you hack it

— That web tech makes it very "hackable" indeed

— I had a laptop with 4 gigs of RAM.
