+
+We are happy to announce that we have just released `Cordova Electron 3.0.0`! This is one of Cordova's supported platforms for building Electron applications.
+
+* [cordova-electron@3.0.0](https://www.npmjs.com/package/cordova-electron)
+
+## Release Highlights
+
+**To upgrade:**
+
+```bash
+cordova platform remove electron
+cordova platform add electron@3.0.0
+```
+
+**To install:**
+
+```bash
+cordova platform add electron@3.0.0
+```
+
+Some of the notable breaking changes & new features in this release are:
+
+* The **Electron** core dependencies have been updated.
+ * **Electron**: 14.0.0
+ * **Chromium**: 93.0.4577.58
+ * **Node**: v14.17.0
+ * **V8**: v9.3
+* **Node.js** 10 is no longer supported. This release requires the development environment to have **Node.js** 12.x or higher. It is recommended to use the current LTS, which is `14.17.6` at the time of this release.
+* **Cordova Plugin Support**
+
+ In the earlier releases of Cordova Electron, we didn't have a proper plugin system in place.
+
+ There was a temporary workaround solution, `nodeIntegration`, that allowed app developers and plugin developers to have access to node modules. This was meant to be temporary and is not highly recommended because it can lead to [security issues](https://www.electronjs.org/docs/latest/tutorial/security#2-do-not-enable-nodejs-integration-for-remote-content).
+
+ With the new support, the plugin will be preloaded and runs in a separate context from the web app. This feature is known as [Context Isolation](https://www.electronjs.org/docs/latest/tutorial/context-isolation/).
+
+ Additionally, this system follows our pre-existing plugin structure. This means the app code does not need to make any special calls for Electron vs any other platform.
+
+For a quick start guide and in-depth configuration setup, please check out our [Cordova Electron Documentation](https://github.com/apache/cordova-electron/blob/rel/2.0.0/DOCUMENTATION.md)!

+Please report any issues you find at [issues.cordova.io](http://issues.cordova.io/)!
