From 947eb374d654c07ccfdd2721ee37d3aae482ced1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Martin Wimpress Date: Fri, 28 Apr 2017 10:44:39 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Add snap installation instructions This pull request adds installation instructions for users of [snap enabled Linux distributions](https://snapcraft.io/docs/core/install). Snaps enable ISVs and projects to make their software available to millions of Linux users via the snap store and directly control delivery of software updates to their users. Snaps of desktop applications will also be available via the desktop Software Center, improving the discoverability of your software. Your software can be installed with a simple `snap install shout` simplifying the installation instructions for your users. --- README.md | 12 ++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 12 insertions(+) diff --git a/README.md b/README.md index e8fd5de7..33c3e8d0 100644 --- a/README.md +++ b/README.md @@ -14,6 +14,18 @@ __What features does it have?__ ## Install +### Linux + +Install Shout in seconds on [Ubuntu and other snap supported Linux distributions](https://snapcraft.io/docs/core/install) with: + +``` +snap install shout +``` + +Installing a snap is very quick.
