#### The ROS 2 foxy ros-core variant.

This snap contains the ROS 2 foxy ros-core variant [1].

It provides the ROS 2 foxy stack to other snaps to that use it.
It shares the ROS 2 foxy libraries, components and executables
through the content interface.
This helps reduce the size of snaps and helps developers to easily snap ROS 2 foxy 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]. \
