Start from desktop icon

My app only starts from the terminal at the moment how do I make it start off of an icon? any one know a good guide?

Hi, you should move this to the #snapcraft category, but also take a look at https://snapcraft.io/docs/desktop-menu-icon-support and https://snapcraft.io/docs/desktop-applications, hopefully those help

I have moved further on I now had a .desktop file:

[Desktop Entry]
Name=highlighterpdf
Exec= highlighterpdf
Icon=${SNAP}/meta/gui/highlighterpdf.png
Type=Application
Categories=Utility

I have followed the instructions but it still does not show in the applications menu?
I am using Kubuntu
