Your {TEXMF} root subdirectory

For Tex Live: This whole folder can be moved into the ~/texmf directory to begin using the class files.

For MikTeX: It is platform dependent, See UserInstall from (https://miktex.org/kb/texmf-roots). You may need to register your directories: https://docs.miktex.org/manual/localadditions.html. You will need to update the filename database (FNDB) (MiKTeX Console -> Tasks ->Refresh file name database), see https://docs.miktex.org/manual/configuring.html#fndbupdate. You can do this in the command line with the initexmf -u command.

The folder post install

If using the zip download there may be one or two containing directories before the actual folders that need copying. Once the folder has been extracted your {TEXMF} directory should look like so.
