It was a while ago, but really I just remember heavily relying on the Electron docs. It took a while to understand the Main and Renderer Processes but was ecstatic to finally have them communicate with each other in my first app.
I learned all this in the company I joined that reached out to me on our graduation day at A100. I was never asked to use the tech really, there were a lot of tasks that desperately needed to be automated so I was tinkering with different apps so anyone can use it on their desktop.

That's kind of what got me started on this track. I'm building some CLI tools that are really helpful to my team, but would be pretty confusing for some other folks if I don't wrap a non-Jenkins GUI around it.
And the main vs renderer processes are tricky. I have a sense of how they interact from running through a couple tutorials, but I'll definitely read through what you posted since it hasn't REALLY clicked yet.

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
Woof. That's a lot to take on for the first time all at once. Was that at the AR/VR shop?
Come across any resources that really made things click for you?
