How to access electron "app" from vue?

I’d like to display the app version in my ui. The version should come from package.json. However I can’t seem to access app from within my renderer components.

I’ve tried

<script>
  import app from 'electron'

  export default {

    data () {
      return {
        appVersion: app.getVersion()
      }
    },

I was considering importing package.json to read it directly from there but I’m not sure if this will work both in dev and build since package.json doesn’t get packaged (I’m using electron-builder)?

My mistake, I for some reason thought app was a shared module. You’ll need to access it from remote. In development you’ll probably get the version of electron being used, but in production you should get the version from package.json.

import { remote } from 'electron'

console.log(remote.app.getVersion())

Is that safe to use this approach of @n82, @SimulatedGREG ?
