Description
Hello
I have been using the packages in snap for a while when installing applications on Linux and recently I came up with the idea of learning to program with these small boards for some future project, now I wanted to download the arduino IDE but the download is a compressed .tar package. xz instead of one of installation, which would be more comfortable since lately these are very easy to use
Contributor guide
Research direction
The issue requests a Linux .snap package instead of the existing compressed .tar.xz download. Start by tracing the repository's current packaging and release process; done means a usable Snap package is produced for Arduino IDE 1.x.
