Atom and all repositories under Atom will be archived on December 15, 2022. Learn more in our official announcement Atom is a hackable text editor for the 21st century, built on Electron, and based on everything we love about our favorite editors. We designed it to be deeply customizable, but still approachable using the default configuration. This project adheres to the Contributor Covenant code of conduct. By participating, you are expected to uphold this code. Please report unacceptable behavior to [email protected]. If you want to read about using Atom or developing packages in Atom, the Atom Flight Manual is free and available online. You can find the source to the manual in atom/flight-manual.atom.io. Download the latest Atom installer. AtomSetup.exe is 32-bit. For 64-bit systems, download AtomSetup-x64.exe . You can also download atom-windows.zip (32-bit) or atom-x64-windows.zip (64-bit) from the releases page. The .zip version will not automatically update. Using Chocolatey? Run cinst Atom to install the latest version of Atom. Configure your distribution's package manager to install and update Atom by following the Linux installation instructions in the Flight Manual. You will also find instructions on how to install Atom's official Linux packages without using a package repository, though you will not get automatic updates after installing Atom this way. This version enables you to install multiple Atom versions in parallel. It has been built on Ubuntu 64-bit, but should be compatible with other Linux distributions. 2. Download atom-amd64.tar.gz from the Atom releases page. 3. Run tar xf atom-amd64.tar.gz in the directory where you want to extract the Atom folder. 4. Launch Atom using the installed atom command from the newly extracted directory. The Linux version does not currently automatically update so you will need to repeat these steps to upgrade to future releases. When using the Atom or other GitHub logos, be sure to follow the GitHub logo guidelines.
