+Service Makefile
+****************
+
+.. note::
+
+    *This file is optional*
+
+A Makefile serves as a convenience for outlining the build. This helps streamline additional developer contributions to the project. Please reference the GNU `documentation <https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/Introduction.html>`_ for implementation details.
+
+An alternative to using ``make`` is to use the `nix <https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Nix>`_ specification.
+
+This purpose of this file is to:
+
+- Read the docker container and build the project
+- Build all prerequisites for running the docker file
+- Build all dependencies
+- Package ``config_rules.yaml``, ``config_spec.yaml``, ``manifest.yaml``, and ``image.tar`` into an ``.s9pk`` extension by invoking ``appmgr``.
+
+Example
+=======
+
+The `LND wrapper <https://github.com/Start9Labs/lnd-wrapper/blob/master/Makefile>`_ features a well defined Makefile, for example.
