Not quite. It's a general-purpose code editor that you could say comes
from the javascript corner of programming.

However, we do have active devs improving the perl6-related plugins for
atom, so they are generally of high quality.

I'm afraidr that won't last.

Due to the many bugs (debuggger test don't work with recent perl), and lack of 
stability (random crashes), I've given up on maintaining padre for Debian last 
year and requested its removal from Debian. 

Since Ubuntu uses padre Debian package, I'm afraid that padre will not be 
shipped on Ubuntu in the next future.

All the best

That won't last. Ubuntu ships Debian packages. 

Due to the many bugs (debuggger never worked), and lack of stability (random 
crashes), I've given up on maintaining padre for Debian last year and 
requested its removal.

Sorry, bad wording: I meant its activity (commits) seems to be one
year old. The last commit seems to be one year old.
This shows that you are right: the proect started sometime in 2008 (10
years ago): .
Last time I installed and used it I had the problem with SQLite3
Locker.pm 
;
please note that at least in Ubuntu Padre is shipped as version 1
while 1.01 is available.

That's the age of a fork, probably. I used Padre a bit over a decade ago;
it's not "one year old".

my alternative is Vim with a bunch of plugins to support (all) the features
quoted at http://padre.perlide.org/features/

If anyone is interested my .vimrc is available at
https://github.com/jahagirdar/misc-scripts/blob/master/.vimrc
