-### Application Type
-
-By default the `icinga2` binary loads the `icinga` library. A different application type
-can be specified with the `--app` command-line option.
-Note: This is not needed by the average Icinga user, only developers.
-
-### Libraries
-
-Instead of loading libraries using the [`library` config directive](17-language-reference.md#library)
-you can also use the `--library` command-line option.
-Note: This is not needed by the average Icinga user, only developers.
