I somehow got rid of the REPL, and now can’t load Julia in Atom. How do I get it back? Do I need to provide a list of relevant packages for atom?

I think you should clarify what you mean by “getting rid of the REPL” and “load Julia in Atom”, and what you did in order for this to happen.

Best-case scenario is you just closed the REPL pane and don’t know how to open it again, in which case you can just do Ctrl-J+Ctrl-O or Juno \> Open REPL from the top menu in Atom.  
If this is not the case, then more information is needed.  
At worst, uninstalling and re-installing the Juno packages should solve any issue I guess.

I don’t see Juno in the top menu.

If you don’t see Juno in the top menu then you do not have Juno installed in your Atom

There’s an Atom package called `uber-juno` which does the installation of all the required Atom and Julia packages for you.

Installation instructions are here: [Installation Instructions · Juno Documentation](http://docs.junolab.org/stable/man/installation/)
