Take a look at [GitHub - JunoLab/atom-julia-client: Juno a good IDE?](https://github.com/JunoLab/atom-julia-client)

> **Attention** : We have decided to join forces with the [Julia extension for VSCode](https://github.com/julia-vscode/julia-vscode). As such, this Atom-based plugin is effectively in “maintenance-only mode” and we expect to only work on bug fixes in the future.
