When running Livebook Desktop, Livebook will invoke on boot a file named
`~/.livebookdesktop.sh` on macOS or `%USERPROFILE%\.livebookdesktop.bat`
on Windows. This file can set environment variables used by Livebook,
such as [the `PATH` environment variable](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PATH_(variable)),
or to configure the Erlang VM, for instance, by setting
`ERL_AFLAGS="-proto_dist inet6_tcp"` if you need Livebook to run over IPv6.
such as:
* [the `PATH` environment variable](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PATH_(variable))
* set `LIVEBOOK_DISTRIBUTION=name` to enable notebooks to communicate
with nodes in other machines
* or to configure the Erlang VM, for instance, by setting
`ERL_AFLAGS="-proto_dist inet6_tcp"` if you need Livebook to run over IPv6
Be careful when modifying said files, Livebook may be unable to start if
configured incorrectly.
