@capawesome-team/capacitor-zip

Capacitor plugin to zip and unzip files.

Sponsorware

This project is available as Sponsorware.

Sponsorware is a release strategy for open-source software that enables developers to be compensated for their open-source work with fewer downsides than traditional open-source funding models. (Source)

This means...

• The source code will be published as soon as the funding goal is reached.
• Any sponsor with a sponsorware tier gets immediate access to our sponsors-only repository and can start using the project right away.

Terms

This project is licensed under the terms of the MIT license.
However, we kindly ask you to respect our fair use policy:

• Please don't distribute the source code of the sponsors-only repository. You may freely use it for public, private or commercial projects, privately fork or mirror it, but please don't make the source code public, as it would counteract the sponsorware strategy.
• If you cancel your subscription, you're automatically removed as a collaborator and will miss out on all future updates. However, you may use the latest version that's available to you as long as you like.

Installation
