Visual Studio Code or Atom? Which Code Editor Should You Use?
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
Finding a [good open source code editor][1] is not hard these days, choosing one can be.
|
||||
|
||||
Microsoft’s [Visual Studio Code][2] and GitHub’s [Atom][3] are two of the most popular, feature-rich, IDE-like code editors that have a huge user base and fan following.
|
||||
|
||||
Both VS Code and Atom belong to Microsoft now because Atom’s original developer GitHub is now owned by Microsoft. They have an interesting, modern UI with a pretty looking native dark theme. Both editors use [Electron][4] for the user interface.
|
||||
|
||||
The similarities are plenty and this is why it is easy to get confused between choosing one of them for your coding set up.
|
||||
|
||||
If you cannot make up your mind and want to compare and choose between one VS Code and Atom, this article should help you decide for yourself.
|
||||
|
||||
### Visual Studio Code
|
||||
|
||||
![Visual Studio Code’s User Interface with a busy project interface][5]
|
||||
|
||||
[Visual Studio Code][2] (A.K.A. VS Code) is one of the modern open source code editors. Its user-base explode because of its IDE-like features but still remaining relatively light on resources.
|
||||
|
||||
Visual Studio Code was made by Microsoft and is available on Linux, macOS and Windows. Microsoft released _most_ of the source code of Visual Studio Code on [GitHub][6] under the MIT License on 18th November 2015.
|
||||
|
||||
VS Code developers have done some fantastic optimizations with Electron to make it as lightweight and efficient as possible. And since Electron apps work on a majority of operating systems, users of Linux, macOS and Windows can all benefit from these optimizations.
|
||||
|
||||
[Installing VS Code on Linux][7] is pretty simple too. It is in fact available in the software center of many distributions.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Why you should opt for Visual Studio Code
|
||||
|
||||
* Visual Studio Code is [generally] chosen by folks who want a near-IDE functionality from the start and do not want to fiddle with their code editor.
|
||||
* Visual Studio Code, even though based on Electron, has very little overhead compared to other Electron apps (GitHub’s Atom).
|
||||
* More out-of-the-box functionality like Microsoft’s IntelliSense auto-complete, Git integration, Markdown support.
|
||||
* Plug-ins can only add features, themes and add support for new languages; and this plug-in constraint ensures the editor’s core stays familiar even after adding new plug-ins.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The binary releases [distributed by Microsoft][8] are still proprietary freeware. [VSCodium][9] builds upon the publicly open source code of Visual Studio Code. However, the discussion on VSCodium is beyond the scope of this article, except for considering it as a viable alternative to Visual Studio Code if you want the functionality Visual Studio Code offers, but without any proprietary elements to it.
|
||||
|
||||
### Atom
|
||||
|
||||
![User Interface of the Atom editor][10]
|
||||
|
||||
[GitHub’s Atom][3] is another free and open source code editor available for Linux, macOS and Windows. Atom is a desktop application made with Electron for easy package development using JavaScript.
|
||||
|
||||
Atom’s source code was released under the MIT License [on GitHub][11]. Since Atom is a GitHub product, it has Git Control embedded in it.
|
||||
|
||||
Atom is dubbed as the “hackable text editor for the 21st Century” because of it complete customizability using HTML, CSS and JS.
|
||||
|
||||
Like VS Code, you can easily [install Atom on Linux][12] and other platforms.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Reasons to choose Atom
|
||||
|
||||
* Atom is preferred by people who want a bare-bones editor and want to build upon it because of Atom’s hackable nature.
|
||||
* In-built Git and complete GitHub integration; not surprising considering it is developed by GitHub
|
||||
* [Atom’s plug-ins][13] are very easy to search, install and upgrade, from the app itself.
|
||||
* Plug-ins available for Atom are very extensible, and can end up completely changing the editor’s functionality and end up creating almost a new editor; It truly is “hackable”.
|
||||
* Atom’s binary releases and its source code are fully open source (unlike Visual Studio Code’s binary releases containing proprietary parts + telemetry).
|
||||
* You can [turn Atom from a code editor to IDE][14] with smarter context-aware auto-completion, code navigation features, document formatting and more.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Conclusion
|
||||
|
||||
Both Atom and VS Code are built on Electron. But Microsoft has done more optimization on VS Code to make it as lightweight as possible.
|
||||
|
||||
At this point, VS Code is like Ubuntu, ships with almost everything out of the box. While Atom is like Arch, minimal and extremely hackable (extendable).
|
||||
|
||||
Both, Atom and VS Code technically are under Microsoft and eventually will reach feature parity. Hence, it is best to go with the editor your community (Web dev/Soft dev) leans towards and pave the path ahead. Maybe you end up with Vim!

VS Code 还是 Atom？你应该选择哪个？
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
如今，找到一个 [好的开源代码编辑器][1] 并不难，随便选择一个就可以了。
|
||||
|
||||
微软的 [VS Code][2] 和 GitHub 的 [Atom][3] 是两个最流行的、功能丰富的、类似于 IDE 的代码编辑器，都拥有庞大的用户群和粉丝。
|
||||
|
||||
VS Code 和 Atom 现在都属于微软，因为 Atom 的原开发者 GitHub 现在属于微软。这两个都有一个有吸引力的、现代的 UI，有一个漂亮的原生黑暗主题。两个编辑器都使用 [Electron][4] 作为用户界面。
|
||||
|
||||
相似的地方很多，这就是为什么你很容易在它们中间选择时感到迷惑。
|
||||
|
||||
如果你不能下定决心，想在 VS Code 和 Atom 之间进行一番比较和选择，这篇文章应该可以帮助你。
|
||||
|
||||
### VS Code
|
||||
|
||||
![VS Code 的用户界面与拥挤的项目界面][5]
|
||||
|
||||
[VS Code][2] 是开源的现代编辑器之一。它的用户群爆炸性地增长，因为它具有类似 IDE 的功能，但仍然保持相对较轻的资源占用。
|
||||
|
||||
VS Code 是由微软制作的，可用于 Linux、macOS 和 Windows。微软于 2015 年 11 月 18 日在 [GitHub][6] 上根据 MIT 许可发布了 VS Code 的 _大部分_ 源代码。
|
||||
|
||||
VS Code 的开发者对 Electron 进行了一些奇妙的优化，使其尽可能的轻量级和高效。由于 Electron 应用程序可以在大多数操作系统上运行，Linux、macOS 和 Windows 的用户都可以从这些优化中受益。
|
||||
|
||||
[在 Linux 上安装 VS Code][7] 也相当简单。事实上，它在许多发行版的软件中心都有。
|
||||
|
||||
#### 为什么你应该选择 VS Code？
|
||||
|
||||
* 那些从一开始就想获得接近 IDE 的功能，而又不想摆弄他们的代码编辑器的人，[通常] 会选择 VS Code 。
|
||||
* 即使是基于 Electron，VS Code 与其他 Electron 应用（如 GitHub 的 Atom）相比，开销也非常小。
|
||||
* 更多开箱即用的功能，如微软的 IntelliSense 自动补完、Git 集成、Markdown 支持等等。
|
||||
* 插件可以只用来增加功能、主题和支持新的语言；而这种插件约束确保编辑器的核心在增加新插件后仍保持熟悉。
|
||||
|
||||
[由微软分发的][8] 二进制版本仍然是专有的免费软件。[VSCodium][9] 建立在 VS Code 的公开源代码之上。然而，关于 VSCodium 的讨论超出了本文的范围，如果你想获得 VS Code 提供的功能，而又没有任何专有元素的话，可以考虑将其作为 VS Code 的一个可行的替代品。
|
||||
|
||||
## Atom
|
||||
|
||||
![Atom 编辑器的用户界面][10]
|
||||
|
||||
[GitHub 的 Atom][3] 是另一个自由开源的代码编辑器，可用于 Linux、macOS 和 Windows。Atom 是一个使用 JavaScript 通过 Electron 制作的桌面应用程序，用于轻松开发软件包。
|
||||
|
||||
Atom 的源代码是根据 MIT 许可发布 [在 GitHub 上][11] 的。由于 Atom 是 GitHub 的产品，因此它嵌入了 Git Control。
|
||||
|
||||
Atom 被称为“<ruby>可魔改的<rt>hackable</rt></ruby> 21 世纪文本编辑器”，因为它可以使用 HTML、CSS 和 JS 完全定制。
|
||||
|
||||
像 VS Code 一样，你可以轻松地在其他平台和 [Linux 上安装 Atom][12] 。
|
||||
|
||||
#### 选择 Atom 的理由
|
||||
|
||||
* Atom 是那些想要一个基础的编辑器，并希望在其上进行开发的人的首选，因为 Atom 的可魔改性质。
|
||||
* 内置了 Git 和完整的 GitHub 集成；考虑到它是由 GitHub 开发的，这并不令人惊讶。
|
||||
* 从应用程序中非常容易搜索、安装和升级 [Atom 的插件][13]。
|
||||
* 可用的 Atom 插件是非常可扩展的，甚至可以完全改变编辑器的功能，并最终创造出几乎一个新的编辑器；它确实是“可魔改”的。
|
||||
* Atom 的二进制版本和它的源代码是完全开源的（不像 VS Code 的二进制版本包含专有部分+遥测）。
|
||||
* 你可以 [把 Atom 从一个代码编辑器变成 IDE][14]，有更智能的上下文自动完成、代码导航功能、文档格式化等。
|
||||
|
||||
### 总结
|
||||
|
||||
Atom 和 VS Code 都是建立在 Electron 之上的。但是微软在 VS Code 上做了更多的优化，使其尽可能的轻量化。
|
||||
|
||||
在这一点上，VS Code 就像 Ubuntu，几乎所有的东西都开箱即用。而 Atom 就像 Arch，精简，而极易魔改（可扩展）。
|
||||
|
||||
Atom 和 VS Code 在技术上都隶属于微软，最终它们会殊途同归。因此，最好是使用你的社区（网页开发/软件开发）所倾向的编辑器，并铺平前进的道路。也许你最终会选择 Vim！
