Would you be able to move the alias section between the source code and the report a bug section? In my mind this info is interesting, but maybe not as much as the things we already have, like the website and source code. Other than that, I like the addition of the more descriptive title "command > alias", so looks good to me :) |
This reverts commit d965af0.

Add aliases section to snap details.
Design
Who is this intended for?
These changes are meant to be for users of snap packages.
Why are we doing this?
We want to give users a first glance at what they are installing in their machine.
Snaps are self contained packages invoked on the CLI by their name; but sometimes the snap name is different than the command name, so the snap has some aliases defined by default. These are the commands that the user of the snap will have available on their system to invoke the snap after installing it and currently there's no visibility of it (probably it will be information available on the documentation page of the snap, but it's left as a responsibility of the publisher to specify it).
What is the benefit to the user, and/or experience? To the business?
This change will give more information to the user of snap packages, by listing all the commands that are added to their system when installing the snap they are looking at.
How will we know if it worked?
This is a Quality of Life addition. I'm not sure how can we measure success for this type of change.
