## Description

SnapZip is a lightweight WordPress utility that adds a **Download ZIP** action to
the Plugins and Themes screens, allowing administrators to quickly download installed
plugins and themes as ZIP archives.

Whether you’re creating a manual backup before an update, moving a customized plugin
to another site, or simply keeping a local copy, SnapZip provides a fast and convenient
way to generate downloadable ZIP files without additional configuration.

The plugin creates ZIP archives in a temporary system directory and automatically
removes them after the download is complete, leaving no unnecessary files on your
server.

 * Download installed themes as ZIP files.
 * Temporary ZIP generation with automatic cleanup.
