SnipKit

In this example we will install SnipKit - snippet manager that lets you execute the scripts saved in your favorite snippet manager without even leaving the terminal.

SnipKit is a terminal-based application without a graphical user interface.

Add tag

On the "About" tab of the workspace UI you can see that workspaces have tags. Let's add snipkit tag tp our workspace to indicate that this application is present.

Open "Admin" tab, go to "Workspace settings", then to "Features", add new tag after comma and save.
