Right click on your project and select “Package” to package your project
into a zip file (.zip) file. While MPLAB X IDE has the ability to zip
files up, it cannot unzip them. So a separate program will be required to unzip the
project.
To package the project, this feature examines the project file to determine the location of the project files to include. Only files contained in the project folder and those using relative, not absolute, paths will be included.
Items included in the package are the source files,
makefile and nbproject directory.
Header files are not included unless they have been added to the project. Therefore, the unzipped project may not build if any user-generated header files are required.
