About

Atoms opens persistent Linux environments supplied by installed providers. Work with several environments using terminal tiles and tabs while keeping permissions, processes, and lifecycle controls close to the active shell. Every environment has private writable system and home layers. Atoms can narrow its permission policy but cannot grant access beyond the provider's permission ceiling.
