You're right it would be best to put it behind a UI.
I just didn't have time to build one yet. I'll see what I can do in the next release.
If you or anyone else wants to come up with a mockup that'd be helpful.

On opening the welcome window, Junction sets itself as the default handler for URLs. I think messing with the system configuration like this is entirely inappropriate. Please reconsider this behaviour. An alternative might be to add a button to this window to trigger this.
In my case, I just discovered Junction through the This week in GNOME https://thisweek.gnome.org/posts/2021/10/twig-15/ blog. It seemed useful, so I installed it and gave it a go. Looking for a preferences window (since Junction renders huge icons on my system, rendering it inconvenient to unusable depending on the number of handlers for a filetype), I opened the Junction application itself (without opening a document). Consequently, it installed itself as the default url handler. I particularly don't want to use Junction for URLs, the usecase would be exclusively PDFs.
