Rancher's App Marketplace is based on Helm Repositories and Helm Charts. You can add HTTP based standard Helm Repositories as well as any Git Repository which contains charts.
:::tip
For a complete walkthrough of developing charts, see the [Chart Template Developer's Guide](https://helm.sh/docs/chart_template_guide/) in the official Helm documentation.

## Chart Types
Rancher supports two different types of charts: Helm charts and Rancher charts.

This section describes how the kubectl CLI, the kubeconfig file, and the authorized cluster endpoint work together to allow you to access a downstream Kubernetes cluster directly, without authenticating through the Rancher server. It is intended to provide background information and context to the instructions for [how to set up kubectl to directly access a cluster.](use-kubectl-and-kubeconfig.md#authenticating-directly-with-a-downstream-cluster)
### About the kubeconfig File
### About the Kubeconfig File
The _kubeconfig file_ is a file used to configure access to Kubernetes when used in conjunction with the kubectl command line tool (or other clients).
The kubeconfig file is used to configure access to Kubernetes when used in conjunction with the kubectl command line tool (or other clients).
This kubeconfig file and its contents are specific to the cluster you are viewing. It can be downloaded from the cluster view in Rancher. You will need a separate kubeconfig file for each cluster that you have access to in Rancher.
The kubeconfig file and its contents are specific to each cluster. It can be downloaded from the **Clusters** page in Rancher:
1. Click **☰** in the top left corner.
1. Select **Cluster Management**.
1. Find the cluster whose kubeconfig you want to download, and select **⁝** at the end of the row.
1. Select **Download KubeConfig** from the submenu.
You will need a separate kubeconfig file for each cluster that you have access to in Rancher.
After you download the kubeconfig file, you will be able to use the kubeconfig file and its Kubernetes [contexts](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/kubectl/cheatsheet/#kubectl-context-and-configuration) to access your downstream cluster.
