+# remote
+
+> Use main process modules from the renderer process.
+
+Process: [Renderer](../glossary.md#renderer-process)
+
+> ⚠️ WARNING ⚠️
+> The `remote` module is [deprecated](https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/21408).
+> Instead of `remote`, use [`ipcRenderer`](ipc-renderer.md) and
+> [`ipcMain`](ipc-main.md).
+>
+> Read more about why the `remote` module is deprecated [here](https://medium.com/@nornagon/electrons-remote-module-considered-harmful-70d69500f31).
+>
+> If you still want to use `remote` despite the performance and security
+> concerns, see [@electron/remote](https://github.com/electron/remote).
+
+The `remote` module provides a simple way to do inter-process communication
+(IPC) between the renderer process (web page) and the main process.
+
+In Electron, GUI-related modules (such as `dialog`, `menu` etc.) are only
+available in the main process, not in the renderer process. In order to use them
+from the renderer process, the `ipc` module is necessary to send inter-process
+messages to the main process. With the `remote` module, you can invoke methods
+of the main process object without explicitly sending inter-process messages,
+similar to Java's [RMI][rmi]. An example of creating a browser window from a
+renderer process:
+
+```javascript
+const { BrowserWindow } = require('electron').remote
+const win = new BrowserWindow({ width: 800, height: 600 })
+win.loadURL('https://github.com')
+```
+
+**Note:** For the reverse (access the renderer process from the main process),
+you can use [webContents.executeJavaScript](web-contents.md#contentsexecutejavascriptcode-usergesture).
+
+**Note:** The remote module can be disabled for security reasons in the following contexts:
+
+* [`BrowserWindow`](browser-window.md) - by setting the `enableRemoteModule` option to `false`.
+* [`<webview>`](webview-tag.md) - by setting the `enableremotemodule` attribute to `false`.
+
+## Remote Objects
+
+Each object (including functions) returned by the `remote` module represents an
+object in the main process (we call it a remote object or remote function).
+When you invoke methods of a remote object, call a remote function, or create
+a new object with the remote constructor (function), you are actually sending
+synchronous inter-process messages.
+
+In the example above, both [`BrowserWindow`](browser-window.md) and `win` were remote objects and
+`new BrowserWindow` didn't create a `BrowserWindow` object in the renderer
+process. Instead, it created a `BrowserWindow` object in the main process and
+returned the corresponding remote object in the renderer process, namely the
+`win` object.
+
+**Note:** Only [enumerable properties][enumerable-properties] which are present
+when the remote object is first referenced are accessible via remote.
+
+**Note:** Arrays and Buffers are copied over IPC when accessed via the `remote`
+module. Modifying them in the renderer process does not modify them in the main
+process and vice versa.
+
+## Lifetime of Remote Objects
+
+Electron makes sure that as long as the remote object in the renderer process
+lives (in other words, has not been garbage collected), the corresponding object
+in the main process will not be released. When the remote object has been
+garbage collected, the corresponding object in the main process will be
+dereferenced.
+
+If the remote object is leaked in the renderer process (e.g. stored in a map but
+never freed), the corresponding object in the main process will also be leaked,
+so you should be very careful not to leak remote objects.
+
+Primary value types like strings and numbers, however, are sent by copy.
+
+## Passing callbacks to the main process
+
+Code in the main process can accept callbacks from the renderer - for instance
+the `remote` module - but you should be extremely careful when using this
+feature.
+
+First, in order to avoid deadlocks, the callbacks passed to the main process
+are called asynchronously. You should not expect the main process to
+get the return value of the passed callbacks.
+
+For instance you can't use a function from the renderer process in an
+`Array.map` called in the main process:
+
+```javascript
+// main process mapNumbers.js
+exports.withRendererCallback = (mapper) => {
+  return [1, 2, 3].map(mapper)
+}
+
+exports.withLocalCallback = () => {
+  return [1, 2, 3].map(x => x + 1)
+}
+```
+
+```javascript
+// renderer process
+const mapNumbers = require('electron').remote.require('./mapNumbers')
+const withRendererCb = mapNumbers.withRendererCallback(x => x + 1)
+const withLocalCb = mapNumbers.withLocalCallback()
+
+console.log(withRendererCb, withLocalCb)
+// [undefined, undefined, undefined], [2, 3, 4]
+```
+
+As you can see, the renderer callback's synchronous return value was not as
+expected, and didn't match the return value of an identical callback that lives
+in the main process.
+
+Second, the callbacks passed to the main process will persist until the
+main process garbage-collects them.
+
+For example, the following code seems innocent at first glance. It installs a
+callback for the `close` event on a remote object:
+
+```javascript
+require('electron').remote.getCurrentWindow().on('close', () => {
+  // window was closed...
+})
+```
+
+But remember the callback is referenced by the main process until you
+explicitly uninstall it. If you do not, each time you reload your window the
+callback will be installed again, leaking one callback for each restart.
+
+To make things worse, since the context of previously installed callbacks has
+been released, exceptions will be raised in the main process when the `close`
+event is emitted.
+
+To avoid this problem, ensure you clean up any references to renderer callbacks
+passed to the main process. This involves cleaning up event handlers, or
+ensuring the main process is explicitly told to dereference callbacks that came
+from a renderer process that is exiting.
+
+## Accessing built-in modules in the main process
+
+The built-in modules in the main process are added as getters in the `remote`
+module, so you can use them directly like the `electron` module.
+
+```javascript
+const app = require('electron').remote.app
+console.log(app)
+```
+
+## Methods
+
+The `remote` module has the following methods:
+
+### `remote.getCurrentWindow()`
+
+Returns [`BrowserWindow`](browser-window.md) - The window to which this web page
+belongs.
+
+**Note:** Do not use `removeAllListeners` on [`BrowserWindow`](browser-window.md).
+Use of this can remove all [`blur`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Events/blur)
+listeners, disable click events on touch bar buttons, and other unintended
+consequences.
+
+### `remote.getCurrentWebContents()`
+
+Returns [`WebContents`](web-contents.md) - The web contents of this web page.
+
+### `remote.getGlobal(name)`
+
+* `name` String
+
+Returns `any` - The global variable of `name` (e.g. `global[name]`) in the main
+process.
+
+## Properties
+
+### `remote.require`
+
+A `NodeJS.Require` function equivalent to `require(module)` in the main process.
+Modules specified by their relative path will resolve relative to the entrypoint
+of the main process.
+
+e.g.
+
+```sh
+project/
+├── main
+│   ├── foo.js
+│   └── index.js
+├── package.json
+└── renderer
+    └── index.js
+```
+
+```js
+// main process: main/index.js
+const { app } = require('electron')
+app.whenReady().then(() => { /* ... */ })
+```
+
+```js
+// some relative module: main/foo.js
+module.exports = 'bar'
+```
+
+```js
+// renderer process: renderer/index.js
+const foo = require('electron').remote.require('./foo') // bar
+```
+
+### `remote.process` _Readonly_
+
+A `NodeJS.Process` object.  The `process` object in the main process. This is the same as
+`remote.getGlobal('process')` but is cached.

 ## Planned Breaking API Changes (14.0)
 
-### Removed: `remote` module
-
-The `remote` module was deprecated in Electron 12, and will be removed in
-Electron 14. It is replaced by the
-[`@electron/remote`](https://github.com/electron/remote) module.
-
-```js
-// Deprecated in Electron 12:
-const { BrowserWindow } = require('electron').remote

-// Replace with:
-const { BrowserWindow } = require('@electron/remote')
-
-// In the main process:
-require('@electron/remote/main').initialize()

-### Removed: `app.allowRendererProcessReuse`

-The `app.allowRendererProcessReuse` property will be removed as part of our plan to
-more closely align with Chromium's process model for security, performance and maintainability.
-
-For more detailed information see [#18397](https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/18397).
-
-### Removed: Browser Window Affinity

-The `affinity` option when constructing a new `BrowserWindow` will be removed

 The optional parameter `frameName` will no longer set the title of the window. This now follows the specification described by the [native documentation](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/open#parameters) under the corresponding parameter `windowName`.

You will need to ensure that values returned by either of those methods are supported by the [Context Bridge API](api/context-bridge.md#parameter--error--return-type-support) as these methods use the same value passing semantics.
 
-### Default Changed: `nativeWindowOpen` defaults to `true`
-
-Prior to Electron 14, `window.open` was by default shimmed to use
-`BrowserWindowProxy`. This meant that `window.open('about:blank')` did not work
-to open synchronously scriptable child windows, among other incompatibilities.
-`nativeWindowOpen` is no longer experimental, and is now the default.
-
-See the documentation for [window.open in Electron](api/window-open.md)
-for more details.
-
-### Removed: BrowserWindowConstructorOptions inheriting from parent windows
-
-Prior to Electron 14, windows opened with `window.open` would inherit
-BrowserWindow constructor options such as `transparent` and `resizable` from
-their parent window. Beginning with Electron 14, this behavior is removed, and
-windows will not inherit any BrowserWindow constructor options from their
-parents.
-
-Instead, explicitly set options for the new window with `setWindowOpenHandler`:
-
-```js
-webContents.setWindowOpenHandler((details) => {
-  return {
-    action: 'allow',
-    overrideBrowserWindowOptions: {
-      // ...
-    }
-  }
-})
-```
-
-### Removed: `additionalFeatures`
-
-The deprecated `additionalFeatures` property in the `new-window` and
-`did-create-window` events of WebContents has been removed. Since `new-window`
-uses positional arguments, the argument is still present, but will always be
-the empty array `[]`. (Though note, the `new-window` event itself is
-deprecated, and is replaced by `setWindowOpenHandler`.) Bare keys in window
-features will now present as keys with the value `true` in the options object.
-
-```js
-// Removed in Electron 14
-// Triggered by window.open('...', '', 'my-key')
-webContents.on('did-create-window', (window, details) => {
-  if (details.additionalFeatures.includes('my-key')) {
-    // ...
