Atom vs Deco: What are the differences?
Atom: A hackable text editor for the 21st Century. At GitHub, we're building the text editor we've always wanted. A tool you can customize to do anything, but also use productively on the first day without ever touching a config file. Atom is modern, approachable, and hackable to the core. We can't wait to see what you build with it; Deco: Open source IDE for React Native. You can get started right away on your React Native project by installing Deco and creating a new project — it's fast and there's no manual setup needed. File scaffolding handles your boilerplate. Ready-made components drop right into your code. Properties are graphically editable through the property inspector. It's an entirely new way to write, tweak, and re-use code.
Atom and Deco are primarily classified as "Text Editor" and "Integrated Development Environment" tools respectively.
Atom and Deco are both open source tools. Atom with 49K GitHub stars and 12K forks on GitHub appears to be more popular than Deco with 5.77K GitHub stars and 334 GitHub forks.
According to the StackShare community, Atom has a broader approval, being mentioned in 830 company stacks & 715 developers stacks; compared to Deco, which is listed in 7 company stacks and 9 developer stacks.
Since communication with Github is not necessary, the Atom is less convenient in working with text and code. Sublim's support and understanding of projects is best for us. Notepad for us is a completely outdated solution with an unacceptable interface. We use a good theme for Sublim ayu-dark
