  <title>Have applications start automatically on log in</title>

  <p>When you log in, your computer automatically starts some applications and
  runs them in the background. These are usually important programs that help
  your desktop session to run smoothly.</p>

  that you use frequently, such as web browsers or editors, to the list of
  programs that start automatically on login.</p>

  <note style="important">
    <p>You need to have <app>Tweaks</app> installed on your computer to
    change this setting.</p>
