#First up is ZIP one of the most commonly used compression techniques used across all platforms
#To compress
zip -r archive_name.zip <folder_to_compress>
#To extract
unzip archive_name.zip
#If you want to make a zip without those invisible Mac resource files such as “_MACOSX” or “._Filename” and .ds store files, use the “-X” option in the command so:
zip -r -X archive_name.zip <folder_to_compress>
