Overview: Ryan shows how to turn on the snapping feature, the different settings available and the different cases where it might be useful, such as for 1) more precise modeling, 2) duplicating and moving objects, 3) modeling a plank tower, and 4) using modular assets.
Snap tool modes beyond increment: Ryan also explains how to snap the selection to vertices, edges, and faces of other objects.
Unit scale options and measurement: Additionally, Ryan demonstrates how to change the unit scale and system and how to view measurements in Blender.
