Feature - Add to snapstore #7

For Linux, snaps are the easiest way to make cross-platform installable apps. However, right now, people need to run snap install botpress-installer.snap --force-dangerous to run it, which is slightly inconvenient.

Adding it to the snapstore would solve this issue, and make it easier to find Botpress. https://snapcraft.io/docs/electron-apps

An alternative format is AppImage, but that's not installable.

Is the snap store specific to Ubuntu?

No it's not, but I believe some distros don't ship with snapd. You just need to install it and then everything should work. It's not like .deb which is meant for debian based OSes.
