We think there’s a better way to write code–and we've been working for more than a decade to bring it into existence.

Our first attempt was Atom, which we loved like a child but which ultimately fell short of our original vision. When we created Electron in 2012 to serve as Atom's runtime, there weren't a lot of great options for building cross-platform desktop apps.

Had we tried to write Atom in C or C++, it never would have shipped, and we loved the idea of developers extending their editor with the familiar tools of JavaScript, HTML, and CSS.

In the end, however, we reached the conclusion that the editor we wanted to use couldn't be built in a single-threaded scripting language. It was time to start over. Now we're back from the wilderness, this time with the knowledge and tools we need to execute without compromise.

We're leveraging Rust, conflict-free replicated data types, and every core of your CPU and GPU to deliver an editor that will make coding more productive, fun, and collaborative. We look forward to sharing our best with you!
