subdirectory of your 'user-emacs-directory', or in a directory
mentioned in the variable 'treesit-extra-load-path'.
Emacs provides a user command, 'treesit-install-language-grammar',
that automates the building process. A third-party major mode package
could instruct its users to set 'treesit-language-source-alist'
accordingly and use that command to download and compile the language
grammar. A user could also use that command directly and manually
guide it through the process.
You only need to install language grammar libraries required by the
Emacs modes you will use, as Emacs loads these libraries only when the
corresponding mode is turned on in some buffer for the first time in
an Emacs session.
Emacs provides a user command, 'treesit-install-language-grammar',
that automates the download and build process of a grammar library.
It prompts for the language, the URL of the language grammar's VCS
repository, and then uses the installed C/C++ compiler to build the
library and install it.

"Build and install the tree-sitter language grammar library for LANG.
Interactively, if `treesit-language-source-alist' doesn't already
have data for building the grammar for LANG, prompt for its
repository URL and the C/C++ compiler to use.
This command requires Git, a C compiler and (sometimes) a C++ compiler,
and the linker to be installed and on PATH. It also requires that the
recipe for LANG exists in `treesit-language-source-alist'.
