I want someone to help me out in this problem. I want to know a method which hides my application from the taskbar. I want to make an app that works in the background.
I am new to the electron, therefore I hadn’t known anything about it. So, I hadn’t actually tried anything out.

you can prevent it before close and hide window.
const {app} = require('electron');
const winConfig = {
minWidth: 420,
minHeight: 530,
width: 400,
height: 530
}
app.on('ready', () => {
win = new BrowserWindow(winConfig);
win.on('close', function (event){
event.preventDefault()
win.hide()
return false
})
})
with this code it prevent to close window and for quit app you can call app.quit().
if you use this and send your app to background I recommend you to use tray module for restore and have access your app again.
