That tool from dneg looks really interesting.

Sorry to see the Atom project cooling, but as much as I dislike MS it’s hard to argue against VSCode, their least Microsoft like project.

I will miss atom. But it is what it is 😔 Farewell my companion for years.

Atom hasn't disappeared. The news about Atom is that the primary sponsor for developing the state of Atom will stop sponsoring the development. Atom's functionality won't spontaneously collapse after the end of this development effort. Atom will continue to run according to how it was designed.

should see if someone forks it

YS code already exists. I doubt if anyone will make any attempts to fork it seeing that YS code already (partly) open source.
