<\/a><\/div><\/div>Electron\u00a0is a framework for creating native applications with web technologies like JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. It combines Chromium and Node.js into a single runtime, and apps can be packaged for Mac, Windows, and Linux. Both Atom and Electron were open sourced in 2014.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The faster IPC methods are aimed at persuading Electron users to move\n away from using the Remote module to using IPC instead. The developers \nsay that IPC is faster and safer, and the new methods are asynchronous \nso won\u2019t block other things from happening in the renderer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The native theme API has been added to give a way to read and respond\n to changes in the OS’s theme and color scheme. You can allow apps to \noverride Chromium and the OS’s theme choice so your app looks the way \nyou want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This release also has a new TypeScript Definitions generator, and the\n developers say the resulting definitions are more precise; so if your \nTypeScript build fails, this is the likely cause.this means The change \nmeans that elements such as markdown, links and code blocks are \npersisted in the TypeScript definitions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There are a number of breaking changes, mainly from the removal of deprecated APIs, and callback-based versions of functions that now use Promises. The development team has also announced that Electron 4.x.y has reached end-of-support, so any developers still using Electron 4 are encouraged to change to a more modern version.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
