- Ubuntu Core, also known as Snappy, is a stripped down version of Ubuntu, designed to run securely on autonomous machines, devices and other internet-connected digital things.
- A new, simpler application packaging system to make it easier for developers to build and maintain apps.
- Atomic transaction upgrades for apps and the Ubuntu Core software itself, all of which can be rolled back if needed, for simple maintenance and upgrades.
- More reliable and stronger security guarantees for apps and users.
- With Ubuntu Core, you can develop a snappy app (or ‘snap’) on your laptop and then monetise it immediately, by publishing directly to the snappy store.
