The goal is to make the editor behave like a standard block-level element. The horizontal behavior is simple: we stretch horizontally to fill our container. The vertical behavior is more nuanced. If an explicit height is assigned on the wrapper view, we honor that height. But if no explicit height is assigned, the editor stretches vertically so that its contents are visible. This prepares us to support mini editors, which need to be 1-line tall without an explicit height assignment.
Atom is a hackable text editor for the 21st century, built on atom-shell, and based on everything we love about our favorite editors. We designed it to be deeply customizable, but still approachable using the default configuration.
