Hi and welcome 🙂  
Anything you want done during/after install of the appliance, there may  
be some specific routines you want done at every boot, for example if  
it’s like a kiosk appliance, clean out the previous user and create a  
new home directory etc. Basically anything you want done outside of the  
init processes (although that could be done that way as well).
