Use dot directory:

  $HOME/.yourappname/

In there the end-user can edit a `config` file (maybe config.yml, or 
config.rb or whatever the appropriate extension). And also the data files 
you mention can go there too, e.g. `$HOME/.yourappname/foo.dat`.

Also, consider using XDG base directory standard, which would give your 
end-user some flexibility in deciding where these files reside.

The modules themselves would  go into lib/, e.g. `lib/myapp/extensions/`.
