How do I split main.js of my Electron application?

Electron uses main.js as the starting point of application. However, if that file contains all code which handles events of the main process, it is too long and too hard to maintain. Can I split main.js file? and how do I do?

Finally, I reached my expectation. Firstly, I imported my module at main.js by using require() method. Secondly, I used ipcMain and ipcRender to create communication channel between main process and render process.

My modules is independent of main.js so I still need to import Electron module normally.

You can split up your code into CommonJS modules which are described at depth in the Node docs.
