Can Atom Editor being installed on the nano. I suspect not just asking if anyone may know. Thanks
I used the following commands below from How to Install Atom Text Editor in Ubuntu 16.04 32 & 64bit
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/atom
then next command
sudo apt update; sudo apt install atom
then following message
Reading package lists… Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information… Done
E: Unable to locate package atom
the following ubuntu version is installed
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS
Release: 18.04
Codename: bionic
I checked the github for Atom Release 1.36.1 · atom/atom · GitHub
It appears that the debian package is built for AMD64 – which is a problem because the Nano is built on the ARM64 architecture. Square peg / round hole and all that.
A couple of other notes – in the future, you can use ‘apt-cache search’ to see if a package actually exists in your repositories:
‘apt-cache search atom’
That will let you know if maybe the package exists by a slightly different name (e.g. atom-beta, beta-atom, atomtext, etc…)-
I think your best bet at this point is to try to build it yourself – go to https://atom.io using the chromium browser on your Nano. Just above the download button is a “Build from Source”. Click that link and follow the instructions. Let us know how it goes!

or use Sublime Text Editor:
