  <title>Configure single-application mode</title>

  <p>Single-application mode is a modified GNOME Shell which configures the
  Shell as an interactive kiosk. The administrator locks down some behavior to
  make the standard desktop more restrictive for users, letting them focus on
  selected features.</p>

  <p>Set up single-application mode for a wide range of functions in a number
  of fields (from communication to entertainment or education), and use it as a
  self-serve machine, event manager, registration point, and so on.</p>

  <steps>

      <p>Configure automatic login in the <file>/etc/gdm/custom.conf</file>
      file for the user.</p>
      <p>See <link xref="login-automatic"/> for more information.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Create a new user with a name, which follows typical naming conventions
      (no space or special characters, do not start with a digit or a dash).
      Also, make sure the user name matches with the related names, such as when
      referring to a session. A good example is <em>kiosk-user</em>.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Create a session with a name matching the user name (for example, for
      the <em>kiosk-user</em> mentioned above, <em>kiosk</em> is a good match).
      To do so, create a <file>/usr/share/xsessions/<var>kiosk</var>.desktop</file>
      file and set the <code>Exec</code> line as follows:</p>
<code>
Exec=gnome-session --session kiosk
</code>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Set the default session for <em>kiosk-user</em> by adding the following
      line to the <file>/var/lib/AccountsService/users/<var>kiosk-user</var>
      </file> file:</p>
<code>
XSession=kiosk
</code>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Define the <em>kiosk</em> session by writing a custom session
      definition, containing the following line:</p>
<code>
RequiredComponents=kiosk-app;gnome-settings-daemon;kiosk-shell;
</code>
      <p>This creates a session that runs three programs: <sys>kiosk-app</sys>
      (a sample application), <sys>gnome-settings-daemon</sys> (a standard
      component in the GNOME session), and <sys>kiosk-shell</sys> (which is a
      customized version of GNOME Shell).</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Create a desktop file for <sys>kiosk-shell</sys> in
      <file>/usr/share/applications/kiosk-shell.desktop</file>, containing the
      following line:</p>
<code>
Exec=gnome-shell --mode=kiosk
</code>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Create a mode definition <file>/usr/share/gnome-shell/modes/kiosk.json</file>.
      This is a simple json file defining the available <sys>gnome-shell</sys>
      user interface.</p>
      <p>As the starting point, look at <file>/usr/share/gnome-shell/modes/classic.json</file>
      and <file>/usr/share/gnome-shell/modes/initial-setup.json</file> for
      examples.</p>
