I'm looking to install a package from GitHub but I'm completely new to compiling software on Linux. Can anyone share some basic instructions or guide me through the process?

Most GitHub repositories include a README file that usually has the compile instructions. Make sure to check there first! However, you should really ensure you have a good reason to compile from source, as it can potentially break your system if done incorrectly.
