<@U04SE163WC8> where does abctl install airbyte to on the filesystem?

Based on the provided knowledge sources, abctl installs Airbyte into a kind (Kubernetes in Docker) cluster on your local machine. The specific location on the filesystem where abctl stores Airbyte-related files is in the `.airbyte` directory under the user's home directory.  Here are the relevant details:  1. The Airbyte configuration and kubeconfig file are stored in `~/.airbyte/abctl/abctl.kubeconfig` [Deploying-airbyte &gt; Troubleshooting abctl &gt; FAQ](<https://docs.airbyte.com/deploying-airbyte/troubleshoot-deploy#faq>).  2. When interacting with the Kubernetes resources created by abctl, you can use kubectl with the following command, which points to the kubeconfig file in the `.airbyte` directory:     ```    kubectl --kubeconfig ~/.airbyte/abctl/abctl.kubeconfig --namespace airbyte-abctl get pods    ```     [Deploying-airbyte &gt; Troubleshooting abctl &gt; FAQ](<https://docs.airbyte.com/deploying-airbyte/troubleshoot-deploy#faq>)  It's important to note that abctl uses kind to create a Kubernetes cluster using Docker, rather than installing Airbyte directly on the filesystem. The actual Airbyte components run inside this kind cluster, which is managed by Docker.
