A list of snapshots per year.
A snapshot is a development version for Java Edition updates.
Availability
These versions are publicly available, though they are not auto-installed by the launcher unless the Enable snapshots checkbox is ticked in the profile editor, and then it will only download the current version's development set of snapshots and pre-releases.
Naming
Weekly snapshots for release 1.1 and onward are named by using the format YYwWWn. "YY" is the two-digit year, "w" simply stands for "week", "WW" is the two-digit week number within the year, and "n" is a unique letter identifier – starting with "a", then "b", and so on – for when there is more than one release per week. Currently the highest letter reached is "e", a tie between 12w30e, 13w47e and 15w35e. The naming convention is, however, broken by 13w12~. The update that has the most snapshots is release 1.9, with a total of 56 snapshots.
