Snap installation on debian 8.6 (jessie)

I am trying to install snap on Debian 8
Following are the commands I am running

sudo apt update

sudo apt install snapd

Here I get an error:

Unable to locate package snapd

Your title says Ubuntu, but the body says on Debian 8 - can you clarify? Attaching the output of lsb_release -a would be helpful

As per https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=snapd snapd is not in Jessie (Debian 8.6), you’ll have to upgrade to Stretch (Debian 9) if you want to use snaps.
