Communication from javascript (in Electron) to R (local server) in Windows, any option?

I am using a javascript application embedded in Electron and I am wondering what would be the best way to interact with a R server.

Everything I read is about embedding javascript in R, but what I would like is to be able from Electron to send data to a R server and to receive from it the (processed) data, where this R server would ideally be a desktop application installed locally.

Can it be done? There was DeployR from MS that I believe it allowed this, but it has been removed and I cannot find any alternative.

How would you do that?
