Open persistent Linux environments in a terminal

About Atoms
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.
