'Alongside' means the program you're interested in and the setup.py script
should be in the same folder. It doesn't matter what folder that is.

If you're new to Python programming, I'd recommend that you spend a while
getting comfortable with the files and the command line, and the setup.py
files used in regular Python package, before you try to use cx_Freeze.
'Freezing' a Python program is a rather fiddly technique, and launching
straight into it as a beginner is more likely to lead to frustration than
to produce useful outcomes. It's a weak point of Python that distributing
applications is so difficult, and there ideas being worked on to make it
better, but at the moment it's a struggle for new users.
