Code Implementation Guidelines

Architecture Principles

• Follow the Electron security best practices
• Implement proper IPC (Inter-Process Communication) patterns
• Use typed events and messages between main and renderer processes
• Implement proper error boundaries and error handling
• Follow the principle of least privilege

React & TypeScript Guidelines

1. Component Structure:

   // Use functional components with explicit typing
   const ComponentName: React.FC<Props> = ({ prop1, prop2 }) => {
     return (...)
   }
   

2. State Management:

   • Use React hooks for local state
   • Implement proper state management patterns
   • Avoid prop drilling through proper component composition

3. Type Definitions:

   • Create separate type definition files (.d.ts)
   • Use explicit typing over implicit
   • Implement proper interface segregation
