Atom 1.32 is out! In this release, we’ve cut Atom’s memory consumption and enabled the new Tree-sitter parsing system by default.

When working with text, it’s common to find yourself performing a certain set of actions in the same order, time and time again. By taking advantage of Atom’s hackability, you can eliminate this repetition with a custom command to perform an entire sequence of actions for you.

Google recently announced beta support for Linux apps on Chrome OS as part of its “Crostini” project. If you have one of the supported Chromebooks getting Atom running takes just a few clicks.

Developing Atom sometimes feels like flying in the dark. You imagine a feature. You design it. You implement it. And then what? Is this thing on? Is anybody using it?

Data helps us make more informed decisions. The Atom usage data we currently have doesn’t tell us if people are using the new features we’ve built. Also, our current architecture makes it difficult to add new usage metrics. We’re working on some changes to make Atom usage metrics more extensible and easier to comprehend. The goal: understand how users are interacting with Atom and build a roadmap that better serves the Atom community.
