Minecraft Command setblock relative to where player is looking
Is it possible to place a block in front of the player or entity? For example, if I'm facing north, put the block towards the north. East, put the block towards the east, etc.
Thanks in advance.
If this is a duplicate, feel free to say that. I will not be offended.

You can use the caret notation to select positions in front of the player:
/setblock ^X ^Y ^Z minecraft:your_block
where:
X = offset left of player's feet
Y = offset above player's feet
Z = offset in front of player's feet
