Didn't Sublime Text come before Atom?
it did, but this is about electron, which isn't relevant to sublime. sublime's plugins mechanism is a little different from atom, which is much more like emacs
Yes, but the plugin ecosystem really was pioneered by sublime and then ported over everywhere. A big reason atom was so successful is the plugin and themes were compatible.
I thought sublime text used textmate plug-ins at first?
Well maybe it did but I wasn't aware!
