lbthomsen/docker-snapcraft repository overview

⁠Introduction

I use Debian on my desktop but was tasked with building some snap images using Ubuntu's snapcraft.

The Docker image is build automatically when this repository is updated.

Fetch the "snapcraft" script:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lbthomsen/docker-snapcraft/master/snapcraft && chmod +x snapcraft

And move this script somewhere in your path.
