Language-tools: Making atom-svelte package official?

I guess you mean the plugin from this repo? @orta for me it seems pretty straight forward to add this, not much code. On the other hand, if we add official plugins for all IDEs this might get cumbersome at some point. Then again, Atom is a popular IDE. What do you think?

Yeah this is what I meant.

I strongly second @kahverengi001. The only thing holding me back from really utilizing Svelte in private projects and maybe even pushing it at work is having no support at all for it in Atom—see https://github.com/UnwrittenFun/svelte-atom/issues/3 and https://github.com/UnwrittenFun/svelte-atom/issues/8.

I'm not against it. I am hesitant though.

I'm happy to set up the deploy infra etc but it'll need its own contributors. Considering that the atom-svelte repo has been around for 2 years and has only received one PR. It doesn't look like something people are actively working to improve and own it. That is the real sign of whether we'd be able to handle it here.

Moving the extension into this repo could also just leave it unused but now with the expectation is that people who are working on the vscode infra will also need to support atom too, which isn't going to be the case.

@robinloeffel / @kahverengi001 are you interested in actively working and maintaining it?

As an alternative, we could make a PR in the current repo to simply update the dependency. This should be enough (I hope).

Well, I want to help development for Atom extension but I just don't even know where to start honestly. I need to check what has done and what can I do and how can I do about it. I can just simply open pull requests for whatever I have done.

This means yes, I'm interested.

I use atom as my daily editor as do some of my co-workers. Svelte is a large part of our code base and bad plugin support has been a thorn in our foot for a while. I had considered contributing in the past but was hesitant based my previous experience with the author. I didn't was to spend time working on it then have my PR sit there.

If the plugin was given I new home here and not ignored I would be happy to help.
