If you have a working internet connection best place is the repository. A well set up repository can let you access lots of softwares.
Here's mine /etc/apt/sources.list
So, you can manually download deb files from these sites manually too. But, then it will be difficult to manage the dependancies.
Also, some packages in my repositories are betas, I would advise you not to install them for now.
Here's mine /etc/apt/sources.list
