# PKGFILE
version 1
---
PKGFiles are an all-in-one solution to install a package.
## Overhead
Because pkgfiles include everything, many times you can download more than what is needed.
This may seem stupid but pkgfiles are *not* meant to stay on your system.
## Format
The format is as follows:
```
[PKGFILE version (1 byte)][manifest length x 256 (1 byte)][manifest length (1 byte)]
[manifest (manifest length bytes)]
[archive]
```
### Endianness
The file is Big Endian.
