In the present paper we discuss some recent versions of localisation methods
for calculations in the groups of points of algebraic-like and classical-like
groups. Namely, we describe relative localisation, universal localisation, and
enhanced versions of localisation-completion. Apart from the general strategic
description of these methods, we state some typical technical results of the
conjugation calculus and the commutator calculus. Also, we state several recent
results obtained therewith, such as relative standard commutator formulae,
bounded width of commutators, with respect to the elementary generators, and
nilpotent filtrations of congruence subgroups. Overall, this shows that
localisation methods can be much more efficient, than expected
