Both Atom.io and VS Code are popular editors amongst the Hyperledger Composer contributors.

Atom is the preferred code editor for contributors the Hyperledger Composer project. Many developers find Atom especially productive due to the wide range of plugins availability to assist with code development activities. These include syntax highlighting for node.js code, JavaScript and the Hyperledger Composer modelling language, or linting to help eliminate potential bugs and ensure a consistent coding style. Developers can also develop their own plugins. Here's a list of Atom plugins for you consider as you develop within the Hyperledger Composer project.

JavaScript and Node.js linting
