cd rooarr-setup ./install.sh
The script does not require root privileges and does following:
- moves all binary files into hidden directory
~/.roomarranger
- creates subdirectory in your Documents folder for the sample projects

~/.local/share/icons/hicolor

~/.local/share/applications
and on your desktop
It uses locations and formats as defined in freedesktop.org.
