There are 6 different types; +- **Simple**: The default if `Type` nor `Busname` are specified. +- **Forking**: Used when the parent process exits immediately due to it forking. Systemd will know it's still running even though it exited. +- **Oneshot**: When the process is short-lived and doesn't need to keep running. Systemd will wait on the process before starting other units. +- **Dbus**: The process will be registered on the D-Bus bus. +- **Notify**: Systemd will expect a notification from the process to signal it has started up blocking the execution of other units until the signal is received. +- **Idle**: Service will not run ufntil all jobs are dispatched. #clarify + +https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/understanding-systemd-units-and-unit-files#unit-specific-section-directives
