| |
| <section> |
| <h3 id="what-packages-can-use">What packages can use?</h3><p>Packages must be self-contained, and not require any additional external service in order to run.</p> |
| |
| <p>It should be possible to simply start up a local cluster in <a href="https://kubernetes.io/docs/setup/learning-environment/minikube/" title="Minikube">Minikube</a> and deploy it right away. At the same time it should be possible to |
| run them on any other Kubernetes based solution, in the real cloud.</p> |

| <h3 id="what-is-required-to-create-a-new-package">What is required to create a new package?</h3><p>We have a full page dedicated to this question: <a href="/packages/contribute/">Contribute</a>.</p> |

| <h3 id="who-is-involved-in-this-project">Who is involved in this project?</h3><p>Take a look at the <a href="https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/iot.packages/who">Who’s Involved</a> page of the project.</p> |

| <section> |
| <h3 id="why-are-you-using-insecure-settings">Why are you using insecure settings?</h3><p>Every now and then, you might spot a <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">--insecure</code> (or equivalent settings) |
| in the commands.</p> |
| |
| <p>It is unfortunate, but sometimes it is necessary. With the availability of |
| <a href="https://letsencryt.org">Let’s Encrypt</a>, it would actually be rather simple |
| to add proper TLS certificates. But when you are running a local <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">minikube</code> |
| instance, you can’t properly use certificates. Also does the process of getting |
| a proper Let’s Encrypt certificate still need a significant effort and understanding, |
| on the user side, especially when requesting a wildcard certificate.</p> |
| |
| <p>You are encouraged to try with a proper certificate though, and drop the <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">--insecure</code> |
| for commands.</p> |
