The side kick in Kungfu compared to the side kick in TKD?

Is there supposed to be any sort of snapping motion or more of a straight-line stomping motion? I practice Taekwondo and I'm not really familiar with the similarities and differences between our kicks. Could you help me out? Also, is it used defensively as well as offensively? Where do you aim and what part of the foot are you using? Thank you.
