unsnap is a shell-based CLI tool that migrates installed snap packages to their flatpak equivalents on Linux. It generates a sequence of reviewable scripts (backup, install flatpak, enable flathub, install flatpaks, remove snaps) that users can inspect before executing.

Use cases

  • migrate from snap to flatpak
  • remove snapd from ubuntu
  • convert snap packages to flatpaks
  • replace snaps with flatpak equivalents
  • generate migration scripts for package manager switch
  • uninstall snap and keep applications

When to choose

  • you want to move off snap packages to flatpak on a Linux desktop
  • you want to review or edit migration scripts before running them
  • you prefer a simple shell tool with no dependencies

When to avoid

  • you need a polished, reliable migration for production systems - the project is pre-alpha
  • your snaps are not in the applist.csv mapping
  • you are not on a Linux system with snap installed
