Purpose of board outline?

1326 1 Jan 14.2020, 12:14:00

Now while preparing a board I have hesitated - if I have an irregular shaped board, does outline (Dimension layer in eagle, Edge cuts layer in kicad) have to follow the insides of routing, i.e. deisgnating exactly where the edges of my irregulary shaped board are or does it have to be a rectangle enclosing whole PCB including routing paths? 
What's the meaning of this layer anyway?
