In order to use them from the render process, the ipc module is necessary to send inter-process messages to the main process. With the `remote` module, you can invoke methods of the main process object without explicitly sending inter-process messages, similar to Java's [RMI](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_remote_method_invocation). +In Electron, GUI-related modules (such as `dialog`, `menu` etc.) are only available in the main process, not in the renderer process.
