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.
