Breaking changes will be documented here, and deprecation warnings added to JS code where possible, at least one major version before the change is made.
Types of Breaking Changes
This document uses the following convention to categorize breaking changes:
API Changed: An API was changed in such a way that code that has not been updated is guaranteed to throw an exception.
Behavior Changed: The behavior of Electron has changed, but not in such a way that an exception will necessarily be thrown.
Default Changed: Code depending on the old default may break, not necessarily throwing an exception. The old behavior can be restored by explicitly specifying the value.
Deprecated: An API was marked as deprecated. The API will continue to function, but will emit a deprecation warning, and will be removed in a future release.
Removed: An API or feature was removed, and is no longer supported by Electron.
Planned Breaking API Changes (28.0)
Behavior Changed: WebContents.backgroundThrottling set to false affects all WebContents in the host BrowserWindow
WebContents.backgroundThrottling set to false will disable frames throttling
in the BrowserWindow for all WebContents displayed by it.
BrowserWindow.setTrafficLightPosition(position) has been removed, the
BrowserWindow.setWindowButtonPosition(position) API should be used instead
which accepts null instead of { x: 0, y: 0 } to reset the position to
system default.
// Removed in Electron 28
win.setTrafficLightPosition({ x: 10, y: 10 })
win.setTrafficLightPosition({ x: 0, y: 0 })
// Replace with
win.setWindowButtonPosition({ x: 10, y: 10 })
win.setWindowButtonPosition(null)
Removed: BrowserWindow.getTrafficLightPosition()
BrowserWindow.getTrafficLightPosition() has been removed, the
BrowserWindow.getWindowButtonPosition() API should be used instead
which returns null instead of { x: 0, y: 0 } when there is no custom
position.
// Removed in Electron 28
const pos = win.getTrafficLightPosition()
if (pos.x === 0 && pos.y === 0) {
// No custom position.
