Atom Shell 现在叫做 Electron。你可以在它的新主页 electronjs.org 了解更多关于 Electron 的信息以及人们用它构建的项目。

🌐 Atom Shell is now called Electron. You can learn more about Electron and what people are building with it at its new home electronjs.org.

Electron 是我们最初为 Atom 编辑器 构建的跨平台应用框架，用于处理 Chromium/Node.js 事件循环集成和本地 API。

🌐 Electron is the cross-platform application shell we originally built for the Atom editor to handle the Chromium/Node.js event loop integration and native APIs.

当我们开始时，我们的目标不仅仅是支持文本编辑器的需求。我们还希望创建一个简单明了的框架，让人们能够使用网络技术来构建具有所有原生功能的跨平台桌面应用。

🌐 When we got started, our goal wasn't just to support the needs of a text editor. We also wanted to create a straightforward framework that would allow people to use web technologies to build cross-platform desktop apps with all of the native trimmings.

在短短两年的时间里，Electron 发展迅速。它现在包括自动应用更新、Windows 安装程序、崩溃报告、通知以及其他有用的原生应用功能——所有这些都可以通过 JavaScript API 访问。而且我们还有更多计划。我们打算从 Atom 中提取更多库，使使用 Web 技术构建原生应用变得尽可能简单。

🌐 In two years, Electron has grown immensely. It now includes automatic app updates, Windows installers, crash reporting, notifications, and other useful native app features — all exposed through JavaScript APIs. And we have more in the works. We plan to extract even more libraries from Atom to make building a native app with web technologies as easy as possible.

到目前为止，个人开发者、早期创业公司和大型公司都在使用 Electron 构建应用。他们创建了各种各样的应用——包括聊天应用、数据库浏览器、地图设计工具、协作设计工具以及移动原型应用。

🌐 So far, individual developers, early-stage startups, and large companies have built apps on Electron. They've created a huge range of apps — including chat apps, database explorers, map designers, collaborative design tools, and mobile prototyping apps.

如果你已经开始使用，我们非常希望与你聊聊你在 Electron 上开发的应用。请发送邮件至 info@electronjs.org 告诉我们更多信息。你还可以关注新的 @ElectronJS 推特账号，以保持与项目的联系。

🌐 If you've already gotten started, we'd love to chat with you about the apps you're building on Electron. Email info@electronjs.org to tell us more. You can also follow the new @ElectronJS Twitter account to stay connected with the project.
