In file navigation, What does the prefix of ./ mean? I know../ means up one level

I am trying to load a directory, but I have a script that has ./files/bla/foo/bar and I don't know what./ means

. means the current directory.

are you sure it doesn't mean root directory, because that's how it is treated in this program

a leading:
  • / is root
  • . is the current directory, wherever that may be
  • .. is the parent directory, wherever that may be
