From review https://github.com/elastic/kibana/pull/7545#issuecomment-231147435 following comments updated: - README, .gitignore, and .eslintrc are not needed in a core plugin - package.json only needs name and version - unit tests need to go in a tests directory otherwise they won't get picked up by the grunt tasks. Also our convention is to name the test file with the same name as the module it's testing (so i18n_tests.js should just be i18n.js) - For consistency with the rest of the code base, rename the data directory to fixtures. - Prefer const (or let if necessary). Don't use var. - Use ES6 imports/exports rather than commonjs style - Only export the i18n module's public API. For instance, I don't think getPluginTranslationDetails is used outside of the i18n module, so it shouldn't be exposed publicly. If you want to expose it for testing purposes, I would recommend creating an i18n directory with an index.js file that exports the module's public API, and a separate i18n.js file with the "private" API. index.js will be for public use, i18n.js will be for private internal use. |

Getting Started
If you just want to try Kibana out, check out the Elastic Stack Getting Started Page to give it a whirl.
If you're interested in diving a bit deeper and getting a taste of Kibana's capabilities, head over to the Kibana Getting Started Page.
Using a Kibana Release
If you want to use a Kibana release in production, give it a test run, or just play around:
- Download the latest version on the Kibana Download Page.
- Learn more about Kibana's features and capabilities on the Kibana Product Page.
- We also offer a hosted version of Kibana on our Cloud Service.
Building and Running Kibana, and/or Contributing Code
You may want to build Kibana locally to contribute some code, test out the latest features, or try out an open PR:
- CONTRIBUTING.md will help you get Kibana up and running.
- If you would like to contribute code, please follow our STYLEGUIDE.md.
- For all other questions, check out the FAQ.md and wiki.
Snapshot Builds
For the daring, snapshot builds are available. These builds are created after each commit to the master branch, and therefore are not something you should run in production.

Version Compatibility with Elasticsearch
Ideally, you should be running Elasticsearch and Kibana with matching version numbers. If your Elasticsearch has an older version number or a newer major number than Kibana, then Kibana will fail to run. If Elasticsearch has a newer minor or patch number than Kibana, then the Kibana Server will log a warning.
Note: The version numbers below are only examples, meant to illustrate the relationships between different types of version numbers.
Situation | Example Kibana version | Example ES version | Outcome |
---|---|---|---|
Versions are the same. | 5.1.2 | 5.1.2 | 💚 OK |
ES patch number is newer. | 5.1.2 | 5.1.5 | ⚠️ Logged warning |
ES minor number is newer. | 5.1.2 | 5.5.0 | ⚠️ Logged warning |
ES major number is newer. | 5.1.2 | 6.0.0 | 🚫 Fatal error |
ES patch number is older. | 5.1.2 | 5.1.0 | ⚠️ Logged warning |
ES minor number is older. | 5.1.2 | 5.0.0 | 🚫 Fatal error |
ES major number is older. | 5.1.2 | 4.0.0 | 🚫 Fatal error |
