What is the best place to install user apps?
I've downloaded a .tar.gz
and ran sudo sh install.sh
. It's asking me where to install the program to. I don't want it cluttering up my home directory, and I want it to be available in the applications menu. Where should I put it? /usr/bin
? /usr/local/bin
? Or are those only for single binaries? This program wants to create a folder.
~/.local/bin
which is endorsed by systemd and XDG. See the answers here and here for more.
