Does the electron framework allow multi-threading through web workers?

Question

I am having a hard time googling how I would do multi-threading if I made an electron app. Would it be with web workers?

Answer 1

According to the Multithreading docs:

With Web Workers, it is possible to run JavaScript in OS-level threads.

All built-in modules of Node are supported, however none of Electron's built-in modules or modules with native bindings should be used in Web Workers as they are not designed to be thread-safe.
