<h2>What you will need 📋</h2>
<ul>
<li>A computer with Linux or BSD 🐧🖥️</li>
<li>The ability to read instructions and to follow them 🧠</li>
</ul>

<h2>Why?</h2>
<p>Main reason why you want to tar.gz a directory is because it compresses a directory and all of the data inside of it. It is also good for backing things up too.</p>
<hr>
<h2>The command</h2>
<blockquote>
<p>$ tar -czvf file.tar.gz /Location/Of/Directory</p>
</blockquote>
<hr>
<h2>All done ✅</h2>
<p>Really easily done, only one command and done!</p>
