January 30, 2023 Update: Update to the previous version of Atom before February 2
On December 7, 2022, GitHub detected unauthorized access to a set of repositories used in the planning and development<span itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Thing">
<span itemprop="name">development</span>
<link itemprop="sameAs" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_development" />
</span> of Atom. After a thorough investigation, we have concluded there was no risk to GitHub.com services as a result of this unauthorized access.
A set of encrypted code signing certificates were exfiltrated; however, the certificates were password-protected and we have no evidence of malicious use. As a preventative measure, we will revoke the exposed certificates used for the Atom application. Revoking these certificates will invalidate some versions of Atom.
These versions of Atom will stop working on February 2. To keep using Atom, users<span itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Thing">
<span itemprop="name">users</span>
<link itemprop="sameAs" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_(computing)" />
</span> will need to download a previous Atom version.

Atom on December 15 , 2022. See below for specifics.
Atom in order to further our commitment<span itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Thing">
<span itemprop="name">commitment</span>
<link itemprop="sameAs" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Promise" />
</span> to bringing fast and reliable software<span itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Thing">

</span> Visual Studio Code and GitHub Codespaces.
On June 8, 2022, we announced that we will sunset Atom and archive all projects under the organization on December 15 , 2022.
Why are we doing this?
As new cloud-based tools have emerged and evolved over the years, Atom community involvement has declined significantly.
Atom so we can focus on enhancing the developer<span itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Thing">
<span itemprop="name">developer</span>
<link itemprop="sameAs" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_developer" />
</span> experience<span itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Thing">
<span itemprop="name">experience</span>
<link itemprop="sameAs" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Experience" />
</span> in the cloud with GitHub Codespaces.
This is a tough goodbye.
Atom has served as the foundation for the Electron framework, which paved the way for the creation<span itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Thing">
<span itemprop="name">creation</span>
<link itemprop="sameAs" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invention" />
</span> of thousands of apps<span itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Thing">
<span itemprop="name">apps</span>
<link itemprop="sameAs" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Application_software" />
</span>, including Microsoft Visual Studio Code, Slack, and our very own GitHub Desktop. However, reliability, security<span itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Thing">
<span itemprop="name">security</span>
<link itemprop="sameAs" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_security" />
</span>, and performance<span itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Thing">
<span itemprop="name">performance</span>
<link itemprop="sameAs" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Performance_art" />
</span> are core to GitHub, and in order to best serve the developer community, we are archiving Atom to prioritize technologies that enable the future of software development.
What happens next?
We recognize that Atom is still used by the community and want to acknowledge that migrating to an alternative solution takes time and energy. We are committed to helping users and contributors plan for their migration.

Atom, what changes can I expect after the sunset?
GitHub and our community have benefited tremendously from those who have filed issues, created extensions, fixed bugs, and built new features on Atom.
GitHub is the world's best developer experience and the only AI-powered platform<span itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Thing">
