I&#x27;m pretty impressed how fast Atom has evolved in every way, be it performance or plugin system (I was skeptical last year). Its pretty powerful no doubt, but what&#x27;s really cool about Atom is how quickly you can get started with it. I recently started learning Haskell. Typically I live in Vim, but I was feeling lazy to set up all goodness, so I just randomly started Atom and installed Haskell plugin. And it was so quick and so nice! Auto-completion, linter, type hints all working out of the box. And if you don&#x27;t like something, like in my case start auto-complete as soon as I type, you could simply disable it from settings.<p>I don&#x27;t know if I will leave Vim for Atom, but its certainly a great tool. If some newbie asks my opinion on what editor&#x2F;ide to use, I will be inclined to say Atom as its so easy to get started with.<p>PS&gt; And seems like they finally fixed the hidpi issues with this release!
