Does this mean that this will be imported immediately? To all tasks?
Or do I need to “import …” to prevent not required collections?

No absolutely nothing will certainly occur immediately and also the actions of importing/not importing will certainly be precisely the like for a routine folder. It is just a method to signify to various other programmers that you created the bundles within that folder for that objective. So it is just there to interact your objectives to various other human beings. Absolutely nothing else will certainly occur and also you do not need to do it if you do not wish to.

As an instance just how that could function: allow’s state I establish a task which task reveals an API. To boost fostering, I might additionally create a customer for that API to ensure that if various other programmers wish to make use of that API, they do not need to do it themselves. They can simply import my customer and also make use of that. To signify that this customer exists which it prepares to make use of for others, I might place it in/ pkg. Whenever one more programmer finds my database they would rapidly see that it is readily available in this way.

One more instance: I am simply producing some individual task and also I do not plan to also share it with others. I will certainly simply not produce/ pkg in any way and also do whatever is simplest currently.
