On first run, the program creates the nwg-panel config directory in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME or ~/.config. It also copies sample config and style.css files, as well as the user-definable icon sets (light and dark).

At the moment there's no config GUI. To add / remove / customize panels, you need to edit the config file in a text editor.
