The atom repo https://github.com/atom/atom has installation instructions for Linux and Windows. Just installing it on Ubuntu to give it a try.

Recommended Ubuntu LTS 12.04 is too old, now that next LTS, 14.04 is already out.
Which version of Ubuntu did you use ? Howz the experience ?
I use 14.04 and ran into this issue https://github.com/atom/atom/issues/1946 like several others. Adding the following symlink fixed it:
sudo ln -s /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libudev.so.1 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libudev.so.0
Now that it runs, it feels pretty responsive and you can customize a lot of stuff. I haven't used for coding yet, but will try it out for that in the next few days.
