##### Model
The first thing you'll have to do, is to start creating a model. A model will contain all the basic pass infos, like the thumbnails, the icon, and the background and **pass.json** containing all the static infos about the pass, like Team identifier, Pass type identifier, colors, etc.
The first thing you'll have to do, is to start creating a model. A model contains all the basic pass data that compose the Pass identity.
These data can be files (icon, thumbnails, ...), or pieces of information to be written in `pass.json` (Pass type identifier, Team Identifier, colors, ...).
If starting from scratch, the preferred solution is to use the folder as model, as it will allow you to access easily all the files. Also, a buffer model is mainly designed for models that are ready to be used in your application.
This package allows to use two kinds of models: **Folder Model** or **Buffer Model**. If starting from scratch, the preferred solution is to use the folder as model, as it will allow you to access easily all the files. Also, a buffer model is mainly designed for models that are ready to be used in your application.
Let's suppose you have a file `model.zip` stored somewhere: you unzip it in runtime and then get the access to its files as buffers. Those buffers should be available for the rest of your application run-time and you shouldn't be in need to read them every time you are going to create a pass.
> To keep a model in memory, the method [`createAbstractModel`](https://github.com/alexandercerutti/passkit-generator/blob/master/API.md#create-an-abstract-model) has been created.

> Using the .pass extension is a best practice, showing that the directory is a pass package.
