How should I drive the gate from a microcontroller?
Use an opto-isolated triac driver, such as an MOC3041-type device with zero-crossing detection, with a series gate resistor. Never connect the microcontroller pins directly to mains-side circuitry.
Does it need a snubber or heatsink for inductive loads?
Inductive loads such as motors and transformers can cause voltage spikes, so an RC snubber across the triac is commonly used. At higher currents a heatsink is needed. Mains work should be done by a qualified person.
