Snap categories - most downloaded, featured, etc

store

Snap looks like probably best store on Linux (Kubuntu) and there are plenty of great app!

But me as user who want’s to just explore store and find interesting apps - nothing specific, just check some featured apps, it’s quite impossible to find something…

By going to https://snapcraft.io/store there are ~30 featured apps but that’s all.

Would be great to have some apps categories - eg. Apps > Internet | Multimedia | etc…, Games…, and show all apps in those categories with also most downloaded apps, or just featured by some metrics.

Or at least add pagination to main featured list - so users might explore more best apps out there.

That might definitely increase store usage and make it more user friendly!

Hi, I think that the categories section is already on the store, I just want to know how to make my game “bash-shell-rpg” appear in the “game” category since it isn’t in any of them.

I would like also add my snap “mki3dgame-snap” to the category “game”. (I could not find the way to do it myself …)

It would also be nice to be able to see the total # of snaps in the store just so we can watch as snaps grow :slight_smile:
