| ## Snap Package | |||
|
|
|||
| Snap packages are an alternative distribution format that also does not rely on the system installed packages. Snap was created by Canonical. Snap packages work across most linux distributions. In order to build snap packages using the CLI, the `snapcraft` package must be installed. On the other hand, users are required to have the `snapd` package installed on their system. After building your snap package, it can be signed and uploaded to the official Snap Store for easier distribution. The output file can be installed using (`sudo snap install ./MyProject.snap --dangerous`). The dangerous flag is required to install the package. In order to bypass the --dangerous flag and sign your package, a Snap Store account is required and you must login via. snapcraft on your local system using (`snapcraft login`). | |||

I feel this could be reworded a bit. For example, "distribution format that also does not rely" presumably refers to the previous AppImage section, and each section should be able to be read without having read the one before it. Also, the sentences "the snapcraft package must be installed. On the other hand, users are required to have the snapd package installed on their system" is pretty confusing. What is it "on the other hand" of?

Apologies for the delay, thanks for adding this! I put a few changes in here to hopefully clarify this. Lmk if you have any feedback @fetzsav and we'll get these merged in if not.
Don't forget that this hasn't landed in Tauri itself yet |
Ah yeah, good point. I need to figure out a way to track what's been merged upstream more easily (or maybe I just need to be more diligent with checking the PR description ;) ) |
✅ Deploy Preview for tauri ready!

Hey, sorry for getting back to you late. Here is the PR for support in Tauri: tauri-apps/tauri#6532 I'll take a look at it after work today and see what else needs to be done before it's ready for merging! |
