I was wondering what could happened with Atom. Nice to see it died to reincarnate into a powerful IDE.

That note was very interesting to me, because there's also Pulsar which is what I have been trying out, which also relates to Atom. I'm not sure if "fork" is the right word as I don't know the complete history, but installing packages uses atom packages / github sources so it's fairly similar. I wonder what led to this other one

Pulsar seems more like an Atom continuation made by community. Which is really cool.

I thought it was killed for VSCode since they ended up under the same umbrella.
