@balajiv113 - could you try to work on this before the internal server? This seems more pressing and will limit our ability to upgrade electron (core) itself.

@vraravam Sure we can plan something but this is going to be like a complete rewrite of ferdium core which will take more time.

About electron upgrade i believe after new year (jan 1st week) we should get some answers from electron team about the issue raised
