Application Snaps

Application snaps are the most traditional snap type defined by Xilinx. These snaps provide applications that run on top of the hardware configuration present in the currently active platform. Application snaps do not provide any boot or hardware assets on their own. Application snaps may or may not have dependencies on a particular platform snap.  Some application snaps may be generally applicable to all hardware configurations (ex: a simple hello_world application). Others may have direct dependencies on the activated hardware configuration, such as the xlnx-vai-lib-samples snap.
