What are some PHP functions or libraries that can be used to create zip files?

To create zip files in PHP, you can use the built-in ZipArchive class. This class provides methods for creating, adding files to, and closing zip archives. By using this class, you can easily create zip files in your PHP application.

$zip = new ZipArchive();
$zipFileName = 'example.zip';

if ($zip->open($zipFileName, ZipArchive::CREATE) === TRUE) {
    $zip->addFile('file1.txt', 'file1.txt');
    $zip->addFile('file2.txt', 'file2.txt');
    $zip->close();
    echo 'Zip file created successfully.';
} else {
    echo 'Failed to create zip file.';
}
