Conversation
This commit enables the `webviewTag` option in the `webPreferences` for the main Electron window. Enabling `webviewTag` allows the application to use the `<webview>` tag in the renderer process. This is essential for securely embedding external web content, providing isolated browsing contexts within the application.
