Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the launch on startup mechanism in ipfs desktop. Check the XDG autostart file (.desktop) generation and placement for KDE. Compare with working desktop environments like GNOME. Look for KDE specific issues like missing 'StartupNotify' or incorrect path.
