/**
 * @fileoverview Electron Platform Service Implementation
 * @author Matthew Raymer
 *
 * Provides platform-specific functionality for Electron desktop applications.
 * This service extends CapacitorPlatformService to leverage Capacitor's APIs
 * while overriding desktop-specific behaviors.
 *
 * Key Features:
 * - Desktop-specific capabilities configuration
 * - Native IPC-based file operations with proper security
 * - Direct saving to user's Downloads folder via main process
 * - Native desktop integration support
 *
 * Architecture:
 * - Extends CapacitorPlatformService for API compatibility
 * - Overrides methods for desktop-specific implementations
 * - Maintains cross-platform service interface
 *
 * @since 1.0.0

  /**
   * Handles file export for Electron platform using native IPC.
   *
   * This method provides a secure, native file export mechanism that:
   * 1. Uses Electron's IPC (Inter-Process Communication) for secure file operations
   * 2. Writes files directly to the user's Downloads folder via the main process
   * 3. Provides exact file path feedback and proper error handling
   * 4. Falls back to web-style downloads if IPC is unavailable
   *
   * @param fileName - The name of the file to save (with date stamp)
   * @param content - The content to write to the file
   * @returns Promise that resolves when the file is successfully saved
   * @throws {Error} If both native IPC and fallback mechanisms fail
   *
   * @example
   * ```typescript
   * await electronService.writeAndShareFile('TimeSafari-backup-contacts-2025-07-06.json', jsonData);
   * ```
   *
   * @note This implementation follows Electron's security best practices by:
   * - Using contextBridge to expose safe IPC methods
   * - Handling file operations in the main process with full filesystem access
   * - Providing exact file paths for better user experience
   * - Maintaining secure separation between renderer and main processes
