The first dot means the directory in which you were in when you installed it. Probably your home directory.
The second dot as part of '.local' means its in a directory with that name in the directory from which you installed it.
But a directory starting with a dot means it is a hidden directory when using an 'ls' command and when other things show a directory.
You can use 'ls -a' to show hidden directories on the command line. No idea how you would get Thonny or other things to show them.
If you installed it as the guide suggests - https://projects.raspberrypi.org/en/pro ... -firefly/1 - then I wouldn't worry about what it's called or where it is.
It is probably better to ask Code Club these kind of questions as they will likely know more than members here.
