+= Configuring the .kantra directory
+
+Starting from {ProductFullName} 7.2.0, you can perform an application analysis in the containerless mode. Before running the analysis, you must create and configure the `.kantra` directory.
+
+.Prerequisites
+
+* You installed the {ProductShortName} extension version 7.2.0 or later on your system. For more information, see xref:installing-vs-code-extension_vsc-extension-guide[Installing the MTA extension for Visual Studio Code].
+* You installed the {ProductShortName} distribution version 7.2.0. For more information, see link:https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/migration_toolkit_for_applications/7.2/html/cli_guide/installing_and_running_the_cli#installing-downloadable-cli-zip_cli-guide[Installing the CLI .zip file].
+
+.Procedure
+
+. Create a directory named `.kantra` in your `$HOME` directory:
++
+[source, terminal,subs="attributes+"]
+----
+$ mkdir ~/.kantra/
+----
+
+. Move all the files from the link:https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/migration_toolkit_for_applications/7.2/html/cli_guide/installing_and_running_the_cli#installing-downloadable-cli-zip_cli-guide[extracted {ProductShortName} directory], except the `mta-cli` binary, into the `~/.kantra` directory.
++
+[source, terminal,subs="attributes+"]
+----
+$ mv !(mta-cli) ~/.kantra/
+----
+
+
+.Verification
+
+* Verify that you created and configured the `.kantra` directory correctly by running the application analysis. For more information, see xref:analyzing-projects-with-vs-code-extension_vsc-extension-guide[Analyzing your projects with the MTA extension].
