Answer 1

The atom package manager supports starring packages, either online (through atom.io/packages and atom.io/themes) or on the commandline using

apm star 

or

apm star --installed

to star all of your installed packages.

Starred packages can then be easily installed using:

apm stars --install 

Note that starring packages requires logging in to atom.io using your github account.
