| 9 | +- Raspberry-Packs bundle a specific setup you want to clone/roll out on multiple devices or you want to share with friends or the internet |
| 10 | +- It installs packages, runs scripts, setup services on your Raspberry Pi similar to a configured image |
| 11 | +- Its aim is to reduce the manual overhead of installing scripts by hand with automation |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | +# Why not using an image |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +- In contrast to an image, a Raspberry-Pack install an official distribution image first and based on that the rest |
| 16 | +- Every installation step and change is comprehensible upfront, whereas an image is a blackbox where you have no clue what was installed and done. Thus it's modular and developers can copy interesting sections from other Raspberry-Packs |
| 17 | +- Images are are huge and hard to trim down, Raspberry-Packs are tiny scripts and links to downloads |
| 18 | +- Raspberry-Packs are flexible e.g. WiFi or hostname are adjustable via the wizard. Adjusting a Raspberry-Pack is done in a text editor and doesn't require an export. |
| 19 | +- At installations it does the updating and upgrading automatically, so you always start with a solid OS |
