optional
optional is a place to store sourced configurations for various system programs, open source packages, binaries, and more. Anything that is built into your systems general state, usually housed in /etc/, /usr/, /home/, or /NOVASTORE is stored here. By default, no optional program configurations are provided and this is left to to the community to properly configure and share. A package manager will generally have to be used to keep track of multiple packages and their dependencies. You may also choose to use git source control, or compile programs from source. Compiling programs should not be done here, that should take place in /EXTRA/
