Snaps are

  • Immutable, but still part of the base system.
  • Integrated in terms of network, so share the system IP address, unlike Docker, where each container gets its own IP address.
  • In other words, Docker gives us a thing there. Snaps gives us a thing here. For example, on a desktop, a snap provides an app right on it.
  • A snap can't pollute the rest of the system. It's in its own box. But it can still see (read-only) the rest of the system, which allows it to talk and integrate with the system.
