> Cannot tell about NuGet. Maven is typically used during development, usually there is no Maven in production deployments. NuGet and Maven are very similar. Yes, both of them are build-time tools, production is unrelated. For production-ready deployments we can expect users to tweak Ignite to their needs, set custom storage dirs, adjust heap sizes and so on.
I'm talking about new users, about "getting started" scenarios - it is super important to make Ignite easy to get started with, provide reasonable defaults for all the configuration properties. For Ignite.NET, LINQPad is one of those "get started in 2 clicks" scenarios. And this scenario got broken as explained above. 2.7.5 and earlier used temp dir, which worked. 2.7.6 fails: "Work directory does not exist and cannot be created: C:\Program Files\LINQPad5\ignite\work" For Java there is JPad, which will fail in the same way - when you run code from there, `user.dir` points to Program Files. I expect that there are more use cases like this, and `user.home` is a reasonable solution.
