+Each package lives in its own top-level directory:

+```
+<package-name>/
+├── <package-name>.SlackBuild   # Main build script
+├── <package-name>.info         # Metadata (version, checksums, URLs)
+├── README                      # Description and usage notes
+├── slack-desc                  # Package description (11-line format)
+└── <package-name>.desktop      # (optional) Desktop entry for GUI apps
+```
+
+---
