Package it as a Snap #43

For an easy installation clicking in Software in Ubuntu, which is the first Linux distro for many new users now coming to Linux.

Thanks a million if this could be possible!

I will look into it. It may take sometimes for me to learn how to package as snap. Unfortunately my health is not good these days so I cannot spend time for it yet.

Thank you so much for being so kind, but health absolutely first, yes.

Here's a "Zero to snap in (much less than actually) 60 minutes" tutorial video by "Mr. Snap himself" Alan Pope (former Canonical) if it's of any help: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ikoUByA5BLU

Also there's one from his blog: https://popey.com/blog/2021/02/lets-go-snapping/

Oh i just remembered, there is also this spot for snaps (requests). People there can also help (or even do the snap for you). I put CoBang there as a new request: https://forum.snapcraft.io/c/snap-requests/21
