This is very timely, as I was just finishing my Electron app this week. One cumbersome task is syncing the types of the IPC handler with preload.ts and the service called from the component. It never crossed my mind to modify the Window type as seen in this video 😅 what I ended up doing was creating an Nx generator that generates main.preload.ts using ts-morph to inspect IPC controller classes. However, I had to run it every time I updated the IPC handlers.

Thank you for your time and effort Joshua, this was a great help to understand what electron can do!

I've had to build a few desktop apps - for media/downloads/syncing/decryption/sd-card management/etc. for the in-store music and radio industry. mac/win/linux. Doing it all through Electron, but the underlying UI and logic being all Angular was great. I do the same with Angular and Capacitor for mobile apps. (When it comes to tvOS for AppleTV, I use React Native tvOS). Calling it a "jailbreak" is a nice way to put it.

Very cool. It's been on my list to get into.

Can you make a video about how to structure a desktop app using electron with an "internal" backend thats starts when starting the desktop app "inside" the app. Thanks

Would be very nice if you can show the cleanest way to access exposed electron API from angular code
