#### The ROS 1 noetic robot variant.

This snap contains the ROS 1 noetic robot variant [1].

It provides the ROS 1 noetic stack to other snaps to that use it.
It shares the ROS 1 noetic libraries, components and executables
through the content interface.
This helps reduce the size of snaps and helps developers to easily snap ROS 1 noetic applications.

*For users*

This snap is automatically installed and removed when needed.
Manually adding or removing this snap is not recommended and might break things.

If you are having issues with snaps using ROS, please contact the experts on the Snapcraft forum [2].

*For developers*

The `ros` extensions are the recommended way to use this in your own snap [3].
Find out how to do so in the documentation [4].
You can report issues with this content snap on GitHub [5] where the source code is available [6]. \

## Enable snaps on Ubuntu and install ros-noetic-robot-dev

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](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions.

### Enable snapd

If you’re running [Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus)](https://www.ubuntu.com/) or later, including [Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver)](https://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/features) and [Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (Focal Fossa)](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FocalFossa/ReleaseNotes), you don’t need to do anything. Snap is already installed and ready to go.

For versions of Ubuntu between [14.04 LTS (Trusty Tahr)](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TrustyTahr/ReleaseNotes) and [15.10 (Wily Werewolf)](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WilyWerewolf/ReleaseNotes), 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.
