Grub-btrfsd is a daemon daemon that watches the snapshot directory for you and updates the grub menu automatically every time a snapshot is created or deleted.
By default this daemon watches the directory `/.snapshots` for changes (creation or deletion of snapshots) and triggers the grub menu creation if a snapshot is found.
Therefore, if Snapper is used with its default directory, the daemon can just be started and nothing needs to be configured. For other configurations like Timeshift, or Snapper with a different directory, see further below.
