Hi, Evan from the Snapcraft team here. We're really excited to launch https://build.snapcraft.io today. It'll automatically build and publish your software every time you push a commit to GitHub.

You can then promote any build as a release, installable on the tens of millions of Linux systems that already support snaps.

You just have to provide a config and you're off:

- https://github.com/popey/emoji/blob/master/snapcraft.yaml

- https://github.com/abacao/packer-snap/blob/master/snapcraft....

- https://github.com/RocketChat/Rocket.Chat/blob/develop/.snap...

Keen to hear what you think of it or any feedback you have. Also happy to answer questions.


Whoa, that's pretty awesome!

I'm already using this with Launchpad.net, but that's really cool that I can use Github, too.

Dustin
