Configure an item
- Choose type and name.
- Select the app or resource.
- Set monitor and desktop.
- Choose a layout and zone, or free placement.

VS Code can be an application or project editor; it is not a separate seventh type.
Choose an application from the catalog
When you add an application, the catalog shows how many are detected on your computer and marks each as Detected or Not installed. Turn on Only the ones I have to see only installed ones. Opening one shows what the Launcher can do with it, what it is configured with and usage examples; if you only want to open it, choose Open the app only.
Options and checks
Depending on the type, add tabs, parameters or integrations. Launch delay is for special cases; avoid unnecessary waits.
Check that the program opens outside the launcher and that its folders exist on this computer.
See browsers and terminals and integrations.
