This is a collection of scripts to make the lives of Ubuntu developers
easier. It is similar to the ubuntu-dev-tools project, but more suitable
for 'throwing' scripts in.
Ubuntu developers here means people that develop for Ubuntu itself, not developers of other software who use Ubuntu.
Enable snaps on Ubuntu and install Scripts for Ubuntu developers
Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.
Snaps are discoverable and installable from the Snap Store, an app store with an audience of millions.
For versions of Ubuntu between 14.04 LTS (Trusty Tahr) and 15.10 (Wily Werewolf), as well as Ubuntu flavours that don’t include snap by default, snap can be installed from the Ubuntu Software Centre by searching for snapd.
Alternatively, snapd can be installed from the command line:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install snapd
Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.
