This behavior can be changed by providing the optional conflict handler, where the boolean returned by the handler determines whether or not the move conflict is resolved with default behavior.  i.e. returning `false` will ensure no further action is taken, returning `true` will result in the default behavior and the method continuing.

+## Planned Breaking API Changes (8.0)
+
+### Values sent over IPC are now serialized with Structured Clone Algorithm
+
+The algorithm used to serialize objects sent over IPC (through
+`ipcRenderer.send`, `ipcRenderer.sendSync`, `WebContents.send` and related
+methods) has been switched from a custom algorithm to V8's built-in [Structured
+Clone Algorithm][SCA], the same algorithm used to serialize messages for
+`postMessage`. This brings about a 2x performance improvement for large
+messages, but also brings some breaking changes in behavior.
+
+- Sending Functions, Promises, WeakMaps, WeakSets, or objects containing any
+  such values, over IPC will now throw an exception, instead of silently
+  converting the functions to `undefined`.
+```js
+// Previously:
+ipcRenderer.send('channel', { value: 3, someFunction: () => {} })
+// => results in { value: 3 } arriving in the main process
+
+// From Electron 8:
+ipcRenderer.send('channel', { value: 3, someFunction: () => {} })
+// => throws Error("() => {} could not be cloned.")
+```
+- `NaN`, `Infinity` and `-Infinity` will now be correctly serialized, instead
+  of being converted to `null`.
+- Objects containing cyclic references will now be correctly serialized,
+  instead of being converted to `null`.
+- `Set`, `Map`, `Error` and `RegExp` values will be correctly serialized,
+  instead of being converted to `{}`.
+- `BigInt` values will be correctly serialized, instead of being converted to
+  `null`.
+- Sparse arrays will be serialized as such, instead of being converted to dense
+  arrays with `null`s.
+- `Date` objects will be transferred as `Date` objects, instead of being
+  converted to their ISO string representation.
+- Typed Arrays (such as `Uint8Array`, `Uint16Array`, `Uint32Array` and so on)
+  will be transferred as such, instead of being converted to Node.js `Buffer`.
+- Node.js `Buffer` objects will be transferred as `Uint8Array`s. You can
+  convert a `Uint8Array` back to a Node.js `Buffer` by wrapping the underlying
+  `ArrayBuffer`:
+```js
+Buffer.from(value.buffer, value.byteOffset, value.byteLength)
+```
+
+Sending any objects that aren't native JS types, such as DOM objects (e.g.
+`Element`, `Location`, `DOMMatrix`), Node.js objects (e.g. `process.env`,
+`Stream`), or Electron objects (e.g. `WebContents`, `BrowserWindow`,
+`WebFrame`) is deprecated. In Electron 8, these objects will be serialized as
+before with a DeprecationWarning message, but starting in Electron 9, sending
+these kinds of objects will throw a 'could not be cloned' error.

+This API is implemented using the `remote` module, which has both performance
+and security implications. Therefore its usage should be explicit.
+
+```js
+// Deprecated
+webview.getWebContents()
+// Replace with
+const { remote } = require('electron')
+remote.webContents.fromId(webview.getWebContentsId())
+```
+
+However, it is recommended to avoid using the `remote` module altogether.
+
+```js
+// main
+const { ipcMain, webContents } = require('electron')
+
+const getGuestForWebContents = function (webContentsId, contents) {
+  const guest = webContents.fromId(webContentsId)

+### `webkitdirectory` attribute for `<input type="file"/>`
+
+The `webkitdirectory` property on HTML file inputs allows them to select folders.
+Previous versions of Electron had an incorrect implementation where the `event.target.files`
+of the input returned a `FileList` that returned one `File` corresponding to the selected folder.
+
+As of Electron 7, that `FileList` is now list of all files contained within
+the folder, similarly to Chrome, Firefox, and Edge
+([link to MDN docs](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLInputElement/webkitdirectory)).
+
+As an illustration, take a folder with this structure:
+```console
+folder
+├── file1
+├── file2
+└── file3
+```
+
+In Electron <=6, this would return a `FileList` with a `File` object for:
+```console
+path/to/folder
+```
+
+In Electron 7, this now returns a `FileList` with a `File` object for:
+```console
+/path/to/folder/file3
+/path/to/folder/file2
+/path/to/folder/file1
+```
+
+Note that `webkitdirectory` no longer exposes the path to the selected folder.
+If you require the path to the selected folder rather than the folder contents,
+see the `dialog.showOpenDialog` API ([link](https://github.com/electron/electron/blob/master/docs/api/dialog.md#dialogshowopendialogbrowserwindow-options)).

+# contextBridge
+
+> Create a safe, bi-directional, synchronous bridge across isolated contexts
+
+Process: [Renderer](../glossary.md#renderer-process)
+
+An example of exposing an API to a renderer from an isolated preload script is given below:
+
+```javascript
+// Preload (Isolated World)
+const { contextBridge, ipcRenderer } = require('electron')
+
+contextBridge.exposeInMainWorld(
+  'electron',
+  {
+    doThing: () => ipcRenderer.send('do-a-thing')
+  }
+)
+```
+
+```javascript
+// Renderer (Main World)
+
+window.electron.doThing()
+```
+
+## Glossary
+
+### Main World
+
+The "Main World" is the javascript context that your main renderer code runs in.  By default the page you load in your renderer
+executes code in this world.
+
+### Isolated World
+
+When `contextIsolation` is enabled in your `webPreferences` your `preload` scripts run in an "Isolated World".  You can read more about
+context isolation and what it affects in the [BrowserWindow](browser-window.md) docs.
+
+## Methods
+
+The `contextBridge` module has the following methods:
+
+### `contextBridge.exposeInMainWorld(apiKey, api)` _Experimental_
+
+* `apiKey` String - The key to inject the API onto `window` with.  The API will be accessible on `window[apiKey]`.
+* `api` Record<String, any> - Your API object, more information on what this API can be and how it works is available below.
+
+## Usage
+
+### API Objects
+
+The `api` object provided to [`exposeInMainWorld`](#contextbridgeexposeinmainworldapikey-api-experimental) must be an object
+whose keys are strings and values are a `Function`, `String`, `Number`, `Array`, `Boolean` or another nested object that meets the same conditions.
+
+`Function` values are proxied to the other context and all other values are **copied** and **frozen**.  I.e. Any data / primitives sent in
+the API object become immutable and updates on either side of the bridge do not result in an update on the other side.
+
+An example of a complex API object is shown below.
+
+```javascript
+const { contextBridge } = require('electron')
+
+contextBridge.exposeInMainWorld(
+  'electron',
+  {
+    doThing: () => ipcRenderer.send('do-a-thing'),
+    myPromises: [Promise.resolve(), Promise.reject(new Error('whoops'))],
+    anAsyncFunction: async () => 123,
+    data: {
+      myFlags: ['a', 'b', 'c'],
+      bootTime: 1234
+    },
+    nestedAPI: {
+      evenDeeper: {
+        youCanDoThisAsMuchAsYouWant: {
+          fn: () => ({
+            returnData: 123
+          })
+        }
+      }
+    }
+  }
+)
+```
+
+### API Functions
+
+`Function` values that you bind through the `contextBridge` are proxied through Electron to ensure that contexts remain isolated.  This
+results in some key limitations that we've outlined below.
+
+#### Parameter / Error / Return Type support
+
+Because parameters, errors and return values are **copied** when they are sent over the bridge there are only certain types that can be used.
+At a high level if the type you want to use can be serialized and un-serialized into the same object it will work.  A table of type support
+has been included below for completeness.
+
+| Type | Complexity | Parameter Support | Return Value Support | Limitations |
+| ---- | ---------- | ----------------- | -------------------- | ----------- |
+| `String` | Simple | ✅ | ✅ | N/A |
+| `Number` | Simple | ✅ | ✅ | N/A |
+| `Boolean` | Simple | ✅ | ✅ | N/A |
+| `Object` | Complex | ✅ | ✅ | Keys must be supported "Simple" types in this table.  Values must be supported in this table.  Prototype modifications are dropped.  Sending custom classes will copy values but not the prototype. |
+| `Array` | Complex | ✅ | ✅ | Same limitations as the `Object` type |
+| `Error` | Complex | ✅ | ✅ | Errors that are thrown are also copied, this can result in the message and stack trace of the error changing slightly due to being thrown in a different context |
+| `Promise` | Complex | ✅ | ✅ | Promises are only proxied if they are a the return value or exact parameter.  Promises nested in arrays or obejcts will be dropped. |
+| `Function` | Complex | ✅ | ✅ | Prototype modifications are dropped.  Sending classes or constructors will not work. |
+| [Cloneable Types](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_Workers_API/Structured_clone_algorithm) | Simple | ✅ | ✅ | See the linked document on cloneable types |
+| `Symbol` | N/A | ❌ | ❌ | Symbols cannot be copied across contexts so they are dropped |
+
+
+If the type you care about is not in the above table it is probably not supported.

+# nativeTheme
+
+> Read and respond to changes in Chromium's native color theme.
+
+Process: [Main](../glossary.md#main-process)
+
+## Events
+
+The `nativeTheme` module emits the following events:
+
+### Event: 'updated'
+
+Emitted when something in the underlying NativeTheme has changed. This normally
+means that either the value of `shouldUseDarkColors`,
+`shouldUseHighContrastColors` or `shouldUseInvertedColorScheme` has changed.
+You will have to check them to determine which one has changed.
+
+## Properties
+
+The `nativeTheme` module has the following properties:
+
+### `nativeTheme.shouldUseDarkColors` _Readonly_
+
+A `Boolean` for if the OS / Chromium currently has a dark mode enabled or is
+being instructed to show a dark-style UI.  If you want to modify this value you
+should use `themeSource` below.
+
+### `nativeTheme.themeSource`
+
+A `String` property that can be `system`, `light` or `dark`.  It is used to override and supercede
+the value that Chromium has chosen to use internally.
+
+Setting this property to `system` will remove the override and
+everything will be reset to the OS default.  By default `themeSource` is `system`.
+
+Settings this property to `dark` will have the following effects:
+* `nativeTheme.shouldUseDarkColors` will be `true` when accessed
+* Any UI Electron renders on Linux and Windows including context menus, devtools, etc. will use the dark UI.
+* Any UI the OS renders on macOS including menus, window frames, etc. will use the dark UI.
+* The [`prefers-color-scheme`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/@media/prefers-color-scheme) CSS query will match `dark` mode.
+* The `updated` event will be emitted
+
+Settings this property to `light` will have the following effects:
+* `nativeTheme.shouldUseDarkColors` will be `false` when accessed
+* Any UI Electron renders on Linux and Windows including context menus, devtools, etc. will use the light UI.
+* Any UI the OS renders on macOS including menus, window frames, etc. will use the light UI.
+* The [`prefers-color-scheme`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/@media/prefers-color-scheme) CSS query will match `light` mode.
+* The `updated` event will be emitted
+
+The usage of this property should align with a classic "dark mode" state machine in your application
+where the user has three options.
+* `Follow OS` --> `themeSource = 'system'`
+* `Dark Mode` --> `themeSource = 'dark'`
+* `Light Mode` --> `themeSource = 'light'`
+
+Your application should then always use `shouldUseDarkColors` to determine what CSS to apply.
+
+### `nativeTheme.shouldUseHighContrastColors` _macOS_ _Windows_ _Readonly_
+
+A `Boolean` for if the OS / Chromium currently has high-contrast mode enabled
+or is being instructed to show a high-constrast UI.
+
+### `nativeTheme.shouldUseInvertedColorScheme` _macOS_ _Windows_ _Readonly_
+
+A `Boolean` for if the OS / Chromium currently has an inverted color scheme
+or is being instructed to use an inverted color scheme.
