Yes, NWC. I assume it's connected to the default lightning node that gets installed when you install the software.
With my Alby node I was already able to:
  1. Receive bitcoin into the wallet via blockchain.
  2. Connect to stacker.news LN node on LN.
  3. Route a payment to Bitrefill through stacker.news node.
  4. Attach the wallet via NWC. The green circle seems to indicate the wallet was attached successfully. However, when I set desired balance to 0 and click save, I get an error message saying "Failed to create test invoice: the public key does not have a wallet connected. (I guess it's not 100% same as the other user's error)

That error suggests the NWC string might be invalid. Was this with a brand new NWC string?

Yes, as far as I can tell.
I finally got it to work. As far as I can tell, I only got it to work if I check more than just "Create invoices" when creating the receive connection. I think I checked:
  • Create invoices
  • Read node info
  • Look up invoice status
  • Read transaction history
  • Read balance
Previously I only checked "Create invoices" and it would not work.

I'm glad you got it working!
I think currently we expect read node info permissions which I'm not sure we need. @ek do you know why that's there?

It might be needed for the get_info call to check it’s not a string that allows spending
