JavaScript developers are rarely used to developing their projects in an IDE; most of them use text editors and tend to be prejudiced against anything that contradicts their views. GitHub has finally managed to calm most of them down by releasing the Atom IDE for the desktop environment. This may not solve all of the arguments about which is the best environment, but will at least bring some peace, and let people concentrate on their code, not on the tooling, which in the end is a matter of personal preference. The samples in this book are developed in the Atom IDE, but feel free to use any piece of software that can create files, including command-line editors such as vi or vim, if that would make you feel like a JS superhero, though bear in mind that superheroes are so 20th century!
