The media is gushing about the snap package for Visual Studio Code, and how wonderful it is (apparently has a plug in that cures gout ;-). So I thought I'd give it a whirl. I dutifully typed:



$ sudo snap install --classic vscode
error: cannot install "vscode": snap not found


Where the articles all too early? Has vscode not yet landed in snap?

    The snap is only available for amd64. Are you running on a different architecture? You can run the arch command in a terminal to find out.

    Evan, that is probably the issue. I'm running on a fairly old Intel based system. It would have been really helpful if the articles mentioned that rather important restriction.

IMG:  Visual Studio Code should show up in Ubuntu Software application if you search for "vscode" or it can be installed from the terminal by running the command sudo snap install vscode --classic A snap in classic confinement behaves as a traditionally packaged application with full access to the system, and Visual Studio Code extensions are installed into the user's home directory.



After it is installed, Visual Studio Code requires additional configuration to get the features of each programming language working. Depending on the programming language, this may require downloading a large amount of additional software into your home directory.



Visual Studio Code is a lot smaller than Microsoft Visual Studio, however many Visual Studio extensions can also be installed in Visual Studio Code by selecting View -> Extensions and then search for the extension that you want to install.

    apt and snap are completely separate. sudo apt update will not have an effect on snap packages and there's no need for an equivalent of it for snaps. When you run snap install --classic vscode it checks the snap store to see if vscode exists, then installs it.
