    it’s because there are 2 types of Unix path’s:

    absolute path: /app/ (always begins with /)

    relative path: app/ (relative to the place where you are. has no / in the beginning)

    Imagine that you are in /var/www

    If you use /app/ (abosolute) – you talk about /app/ folder

    If you use app/ (relative to the palce where you are) – you talk about /var/www/app/. It means that you want to use directory “app” in /var/www/ directory.
