Why I enjoy using Atom as my code editor

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.

1. Beautiful


I'm a sucker for when it comes to UI, I like clean flat and soft colors. Atom gives you an opportunity to change the theme, and tweak it as you like.

'One Dark' is my favorite by far, it's easy on the eyes and nice to look at!



2. Light


Apart from Atom being good on the eyes, Atom is also good to your machine, it's lightweight, slim and super fast. I'm not sure what the specs are, but one thing is certain, it kicks ass all the time!



3. Code


If you have been using code editors like Sublime, Brackets or Visual Studio, you would definitely enjoy Atom's code recognition and code completion capabilities.
Now I must add, you will need to install packages to your liking, but that's not an issue as these packages only improve the usability of Atom.



4. Try it


This is a short and sweet article of why and what I like about Atom, so do yourself a favour and go visit Atom's website and download it after all it is free!
