inb4 sorry for not following the issue template, but it's not necessarily an issue, just discussion

How to use this package in 2024?

  • It doesn't work with Snapcraft v8, that was released in December 2023
  • It doesn't produce a snap package that would be accepted by the Snap Store, because of sandbox issues found errors in file output: unusual mode 'rwsr-xr-x' for entry './project-name/chrome-sandbox' security-snap-v2_squashfs_files
  • There are no docs or guides stating that user is required to do anything besides installing the package, providing paths and running it, optionally customizing the Snapcraft config, but since there are no recommendations, I assume that clean Electron app, doesn't need any customization to work properly

I see a bunch of issues and PRs related to topic of sandboxing issues, it seems to be merged, but it doesn't work (at lest now), an no one ever in the comments confirmed it did, not even a single thumb up.

Is topic publishing app for Linux that niche, that no one care whether it works or not?

Is there some other user friendly (which means I don't have to get master degree in snapcraft.yaml to make a snap) way to publish Electron app as a Snap package or do I really have to do it like VS Code and handle everything manually, since no one maintains it anymore?
