Installing snapd

Snaps can be used on all major Linux distributions, including Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Debian and Fedora.

Snap is pre-installed and ready to go on the following:

• Ubuntu 16.04.4 LTS (Xenial Xerus) or later, including Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver), Ubuntu 18.10 (Cosmic Cuttlefish) and Ubuntu 19.04 (Disco Dingo).
• Most recognised Ubuntu flavours built on one of the above Ubuntu releases. An exception is Lubuntu.
• Solus 3 and above.
• Zorin OS.

If you’re using a desktop, a great first step is to install the Snap Store app.
