Hi guys, I am trying to get a new code editor for my projects. Browsing around I found that atom (which is one that i've always wanted to use) is still "alive" thanks to Pulsar project. What do you all think?

I've been on Pulsar since Atom retired and I love it. I'm mostly doing AsciiDoc with a bit of HTML, CSS, JS, J/CSON, and OAS/YAML.

Some of our team switched to VSCode but I prefer Pulsar's UI and workflow, and especially the multicursor support. Obviously it's still under active development to tidy up leftover cruft from the fork, and there are a few more AsciiDoc-specific features I'd love to add without resorting to custom scripts, but overall it's my favourite editor by far.
