CS is one of the main reasons I haven't contributed more to Atom.

I guess when Atom was started it made sense to use CS, not anymore. Hopefully Github will switch to ES6/7 or TS.

Instead of wanting projects to move to a language you know, you can better first learn the language they are written in, and try to understand their decision in the first place. If you know CS very well you would not be so eager to move to Babel transpiler imao.

There is also a nice comment in here about a large project that became a misery because of TS. Think twice before you hope!
