Just like Flatpak or AppImage, Snaps are cross-distro packages that allow users of any Linux-based operating system to install any app that’s packaged as a Snap using Snapcraft. These sandboxing technologies make Linux application distribution a breeze. The Snap format was designed by Canonical for Ubuntu Linux, but the company says on the project’s website that it also runs on Debian GNU/Linux, Arch Linux, Gentoo Linux, openSUSE, OpenWRT, OpenEmbedded, Yocto, and Fedora Linux operating systems.
