Moai Framework Electron
This is your go-to when building Electron desktop apps, covering the full stack from Main/Renderer process architecture to IPC communication, auto-updates, and packaging with Electron Forge or electron-builder. It's built for Electron 33+ with Chromium 130 and Node.js 20.18, including native ESM support. The skill emphasizes security patterns like contextIsolation and sandbox enforcement, which honestly should be non-negotiable but often get skipped. You get type-safe IPC patterns, proper preload script setup, and working auto-update implementations with electron-updater. Best for greenfield cross-platform desktop projects or when you're tired of piecing together Electron security practices from outdated Stack Overflow answers.
