ElectronEgg v4 Released: A Brand New Development Experience

ElectronEgg3/4/25About 2 min

Hello everyone, electron-egg v4 is finally here. This version represents a comprehensive optimization of the EE framework over the past few years. For us, it can be considered an ideal release, and no major changes are expected in the coming years, though compatibility upgrades with Electron will continue to be followed. We highly recommend updating.

v4 refactors the core of the framework, offering a better development experience, encryption, TypeScript support, code optimization, structural adjustments, and more.

Currently, the framework is widely used in various client applications across fields such as accounting, government services, enterprises, healthcare, education, stock trading, ERP, entertainment, and video. Feel free to use it with confidence!

Why Use It?

Desktop software (for office use and personal tools) remains one of the needs on the PC end for the next decade, improving work efficiency.

Electron technology is a growing trend, used by QQ, TikTok, Bilibili, Baidu Translate, Alibaba Netdisk, Thunder, Youdao Note, and more.
