I work on an Electron app that has multiple windows interacting with each other in all kinds of ways. It's quite possible.


It's possible in the sense of how webapps do it, because that's basically how Electron does it. Electron creates several different processes that talk to each other through an inter-process communication model. Electron's process model is rather complex.

This is not how native desktop applications handle multiple windows, although they could obviously.
