Installing snap from a live Kali Linux environment is not currently supported. These instructions only work when Kali Linux is installed.
From a Kali Linux installation, snap can be installed directly from the command line:
$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt install snapd
If the sudo command isn’t installed (usually because a root password was provided at install time), you can install snap by first switching to the root account:
$ su root
# apt update
# apt install snapd
Additionally, enable and start both the snapd and the snapd.apparmor services with the following command:
$ systemctl enable --now snapd apparmor
Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.
To test your system, install the hello-world snap and make sure it runs correctly:
$ snap install hello-world
hello-world 6.3 from Canonical✓ installed
$ hello-world
Hello World!
See Missing binaries if snaps are not added to the system path.
Snap is now installed and ready to go! If you’re using a desktop, a great next step is to install the Snap Store app.
