Ubuntu Snap/pt-br

Introduction
An Ubuntu Snap package, or just Snap is a distribution format similar to AppImage in that it is intended to be a "universal installable package" to deploy software in Linux systems. Snaps were introduced by Ubuntu but they are intended to run in all Linux distributions as long as the Snap daemon, or, is available in the target system.

A Snap package has two main characteristics:
 * Programs are sandboxed so they do not interfere with the rest of your operating system.
 * Programs are updated automatically in the background in order to get the newest version of the application.

For other ways of installing the software, see Installing on Linux.
