Ubuntu Snap Install Request

Open MikeD10375 opened this issue 2 years ago • 5 comments

If possible, please create an official company signed Snap with blue checkmark in the Snap Store at Snapcraft.io for Ubuntu. This will make it easier for the everyday pleb to install and use. I understand some developers don't like Snaps for some reason but ithey sure make it easier for the newbie. Thanks.

You can now install Umbrel on any hardware that is running Ubuntu or Debian — including any single-board computer (like a RockPro, ODROID, etc.), NUC, laptop/computer, VM, or even a cloud instance (if it makes sense for your use case).

Just run this one-line command in Terminal to get up and running:

curl -L https://umbrel.sh | bash

Hi, and thanks for the quick reply. Is this option sandboxed and easily fully un-installed ? Also is that a no to a future official Snap? Newbie like me prefer GUI rather than terminal because we don't understand what the commands do to tthe system. Some help forums on the net even install or create security vulnerabliliies via terminal commands newbie users don't understand. Thanks again.

@MikeD10375 Umbrel uses docker containers, so you can pretty much say everything gets sandboxed.

Think of:

curl -L https://umbrel.sh/ | bash

As your easy one time command to install Umbrel. It is friendly to newcomers to command line. Feel free to ask anything.

Hi, how would I do a full clean un-install?

Delete the umbrel folder from /home/umbrel or wherever you have installed originally
