Serial Detection and Atom Pymakr debugging problems

[adrien3d]

First of all, thank you for all the work you are doing for democratizing hardware with micropython support.

As a Sigfox embassador, I'm trying to make a tutorial and open-source fir
mware, using SiPy.

But, on my Mac OS Sierra 10.12.5, the setup is very buggy.
I've already installed and reinstalled FTDI Drivers, Atom, and the Pymakr package.

While my ESP32 "dev boards" are working seamlessly (quickly and always detected as a /dev/tty.SLAB_USBtoUART), it's pretty impossible to detect my SiPy's as serial.

I managed to upload files with WiFi/Filezilla, but it's impossible to debug that! (No serial = no debugging).

I'm trying to get the Atom Pymakr plugin to work, but unsuccessfully, on startup, I have the following message:
Do you have any ideas for either detect easily the SiPy serial port, or make the Pymakr Atom package working?

[Enter steps to reproduce:]

Atom: 1.17.2 x64
Electron: 1.3.15
OS: Mac OS X 10.12.5
Thrown From: Pymakr package 1.0.1
