However, not all ports can be accepted into the main repository as each port is a significant maintenance overhead for the core team. It is straightforward to maintain a third-party "out-of-tree" port using MicroPython as a submodule. ## Board definitions Each port contains a set of board definitions. Each one of these boards will be compiled automatically and published on the [downloads page](https://micropython.org/download/). Board definitions will typically also require a thumbnail image to be added to the [MicroPython media repository](https://github.com/micropython/micropython-media) via a PR.
