Can you use Atom for programming C in Haskell? Would that be possible and would that make sense?

+1  A: 

Atom is targeted towards a very particular domain, "hard realtime embedded software", to quote the Atom blurb. If the problem you want to solve fall in that domain then you should definitely give Atom a go. But most likely your problem is quite a bit different and then you're probably much better off with language-c.

The abstractions that Atom provides aren't that C like anyway, so it's not always obvious what kind of C code Atom will generate.

Good luck!
