snap: Search for a package.
$ snap find ${package_name}
try on your machine

The command "snap find ${package_name}" is used to search for a specific package in the Snap store.

Here's an explanation of the different parts of this command:

  • "snap" is the command-line tool used for managing Snap packages on Linux systems.
  • "find" is a subcommand of the "snap" tool that allows you to search for packages available in the Snap store.
  • "${package_name}" is a placeholder for the name of the package you want to search for. You should replace it with the actual name of the package you're looking for.

When you execute this command, it will search for the specified package in the Snap store and display the search results, including package names, descriptions, and publishers. This can help you find and discover new packages that are available for installation using Snap.
