No longer necessary? (superseded by official handle() method?)

[Eli-Black-Work]

Just an FYI that nowadays, electron has a built-in method to do what this package does: ipcMain::handle()

See https://www.electronjs.org/docs/latest/api/ipc-main#ipcmainhandlechannel-listener for details 🙂

I think this package is still useful when you want to receive the result from renderer process

[linonetwo]

But you can just call a main process API using proxy, so in main process you receive the result from renderer process like a regular method call.

I think what is boring is receive main message in renderer, which requires view.webContent.send, and I haven't proxy that.

Thanks a lot. This is always recommended to use more native things.
