I also decided to take a few steps further, like decoupling Atom from Electron (so that the latter can be used also for other applications), unbundling system libraries as much as possible, and enable GTK3 support (upstream binaries are built with GTK2).
That's cool. I wanted to do something like this right after atom's first release, but once I took a look at the process I decided it was too much work and did not bother anymore. I'm glad someone else stuck to it. This should allow for other electron-based packages to use this shared runtime.
In the future I would also like to maintain Meteor [10], a popular web framework that I use for my job (I don't know if someone is already working on it), but only after they add support for the latest Node.
I packaged in the AUR a couple of years ago but to move it in [community] it required to much patching to decouple it's components and, again, decided it was not worth it. I then dropped it and moved along to use other frameworks. Since you use it for work you should be more familiar to it than I was. -- Massimiliano Torromeo
