It's a Mitzva to not do Melacha (certain types of work) on Shavuoth.
Work involving food preparation is allowed, within certain parameters.
Lighting fires from an existing flame as well as carrying without an Eruv is allowed.
Outside Israel this applies to both days of Shavuoth, by Rabbinic decree.
Applies to everybody, everywhere, always
Verse: "This day shall be called Holy" (Vayikra 23:24)
