Snapcraft 2.30 comes more than a month after the Snapcraft 2.29 release, and it’s here to add a highly requested change, namely the refactoring of the command-line interface (CLI) to offer a much cleaner UI to newcomers, but without breaking backwards compatibility. While support for assigned containers per project in Snapcraft remains hidden by the feature flag, requiring users to set the SNAPCRAFT_CONTAINER_BUILDS environment variable if they want to enable it, it’s been extended in this new release to work with all of the Snapcraft build commands.
