## About us
## The team

### The team
The team behind Pulsar is a community that came about organically after the announcement of [Atom’s sunset](https://github.blog/2022-06-08-sunsetting-atom/). We decided that we needed to do something to keep our favorite editor alive.

### The goals <!--See: https://github.com/orgs/pulsar-edit/discussions/50-->
### Remain community-developed, -led, and -focused

- Community developed, led and focused
- Pulsar is being made by a community who came together from the stellar
remnants of Atom. A community that wants to build upon the huge legacy that
was left and make a uniquely hackable editor.
- To continue and build upon the legacy of the Atom text editor which has been [sunset](https://github.blog/2022-06-08-sunsetting-atom/).
- This means not only supporting the editor itself but also the package
repository with its thousands of community contributions.
- Update core technologies to bring the editor up to date.
- Core technologies such as Node.js, Electron etc., keeping them up to date so
new features and libraries can be used and added without hacky workarounds.
- Emphasize the elements that make the editor great to really make Pulsar stand
out from the crowd, not only for ex-Atom users but for everyone.
The Pulsar community has the collective goal of building upon Atom’s sizable legacy. Decisions are made by those who participate and contribute; everyone helps decide how Pulsar evolves, not just a select few.

### Keep the things that make it unique

Atom’s design choices set it apart among editors. It is important to maintain those design choices as much as possible — especially since it helps us maintain compatibility with the thousands of community-contributed packages that already exist.

### Bring the editor’s core technologies up to date

Both Electron and Pulsar’s core modules need periodic updating to take advantage of new features in Node and Chromium.
