Research direction

Start by reviewing the shell repository's existing build and packaging entry points, then compare the requested Snap packaging with the Unity 8 example mentioned in the issue. Clarify whether Flatpak is also in scope before proceeding; done means an agreed packaging approach and a working Snap package for the shell.

Description

hacktoberfest help wanted packages

Canonical does it currently with Unity 8 and I'm sure they would help you.

I don't know if flatpacks can do this, though.
