Wayfire is awesome, me not quite so much

I just installed Garuda Wayfire. It's freakin awesome. Everything works I just want to know where to go to find out how to add apps the panel and make dpi changes persist from one boot to another. would something like that be in the man pages or wiki?

Hi there, welcome to the forum.
One request per topic please. This makes the forum more usable for future readers.
I'm not a Wayfire user, but I think the panel can be configured here:

~/.config/wf-shell.ini

I assume this is where the config file lives. I would edit it in a text editor reverse engineering the entries and guessing what the entries might be for the apps I want to add, is this a correct assumption?

Sure. I like the cli tools, so I'd go for a:

micro ~/.config/wf-shell.ini

Search for the current shortcuts, change them, save, exit, log off and on.
Some additional info here:
