How to use Phosh Launcher Box?

Under Mobile Settings > Lockscreen > Widgets is “Launcher Box”.

It has the description: “Adds launchers to the lock screen. This plugin is experimental.”

I could not find any documentation on how to use Launcher Box.

Does anybody here know how to use Launcher Box?

On the lock screen, I can swipe to the Launcher Box, but it states: “No launchers configured”. How can I configure launchers?

The default launcher location is: $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/phosh/plugins/launcher-box/

Using Dconf Editor I set it to: /home/purism/.config/phosh/plugins/launcher-box.

Put your desktop files in there, and voila!

I had trouble myself until I was messing around in Dconf Editor and found that the folder I thought they were supposed to be in was not the actual default folder.
