Hi, I'm Caleb. I have been active on the atom slack and discord for a long time, and written a few packages with varying levels of success.

I've always loved the atom project because I think it perfectly straddles the line between usable out of the box and hackable to the core. Also all the core devs I've interacted with have been really helpful and friendly.

Hi, I'm Tony

I am a maintainer of:

• Atom Community
• Atom Linter
• Atom Format
• Bus Stop (Atom Terminals)
• Atom Minimap
• And many more Atom packages

I second @calebmeyer that the hackability and usability of Atom is what makes it amazing.

I've been developing for Atom since May 2014, which makes me a proud owner of those sew-on patches GitHub mailed out back in the day. My relationship with Atom is a bit unusual, I guess: I love it as a platform, I haven't seen such a powerful API in any of the other hip editors out there, but I don't use it for development myself. One of the most underappreciated things about Atom is probably its looks, it's beautiful out of the box.

Other than that, I maintain the @allaboutatom bot on Twitter, mainly to keep myself updated. Speaking of which, I wonder how to update it in the future, since there doesn't seem to be an Atom (as in the syndication format) feed for discussions.

I can do some webscraping and maybe whip up an unofficial API. Who knows? Maybe GitHub will add a feed for it soon...

Oop- nevermind then!

Are team discussions the same as repo discussions in octokit?

I'm not sure what the team_slug would be in the url.
/orgs/{org}/teams/{team_slug}/discussions
