This commit upgrades TypeScript to the latest version 5.3 and introduces `verbatimModuleSyntax` in line with the official Vue guide recommendatinos (vuejs/docs#2592). By enforcing `import type` for type-only imports, this commit improves code clarity and supports tooling optimization, ensuring imports are only bundled when necessary for runtime. Changes: - Bump TypeScript to 5.3.3 across the project. - Adjust import statements to utilize `import type` where applicable, promoting cleaner and more efficient code.
IPC bridging
This module introduces structured and type-safe inter-process communication (IPC) to Electron applications, enhancing the development and maintenance of complex features.
Benefits
- Type safety: Ensures reliable data exchange between processes and prevents runtime errors through enforced type checks in IPC communication.
- Maintainability: Facilitates easy tracking and management of inter-process contracts using defined and clear interfaces.
- Security: Implements the least-privilege principle by defining which members are accessible in proxy objects, enhancing the security of IPC interactions.
- Simplicity: Simplifies IPC calls by abstracting the underlying complexity, providing a more straightforward interface for developers.
- Scalability: Structured IPC management supports effective scaling and reduces the challenges of ad-hoc IPC implementations.
