Other /home/<user>/.config folder not found

Good Morning All,

I am trying to install wayfire in my system, I have followed the below guide, but when coming to the section 6.2 The Wayfire compositor, there is a step to create the folder wayfire under ~/.config/wayfire which is supposed to be under /home/<user>/.config, but when I am trying to make directory on that path getting the error "No such file or directory" which is /home/<user>/.config, can any one please let me know whether we need to create the .config folder manually under /user, If yes please let me know how to make this folder permanent after reboot

steps that hold me
% mkdir ~/.config/wayfire
% cp /usr/local/share/examples/wayfire/wayfire.ini ~/.config/wayfire

below is the reference.

Chapter 6. Wayland

This chapter describes how to install and configure Wayland and compositors on FreeBSD, which provides a graphical user environment
docs.freebsd.org docs.freebsd.org
 
mkdir -p ~/.config/wayfire

Code: 
     -p         Create intermediate directories as required.  If this option
                is not specified, the full path prefix of each operand must
                already exist.  On the other hand, with this option specified,
                no error will be reported if a directory given as an operand
                already exists.  Intermediate directories are created with
                permission bits of “rwxrwxrwx” (0777) as modified by the
                current umask, plus write and search permission for the owner.

Mr.SirDice
Thanks for your immediate response, also I want to make it permanent, I saw a response regarding this previously in this forums, but I can’t find that response when I searched, it will be like in .bashrc we need to export some “XDG_” can you please let me know how to make that path permanent or it would be great if you find that post/thread here in this response
