How to create a symlink?

To create a symbolic link (symlink) in a Unix-like operating system, you can use the ln command with the -s option. The syntax is as follows:

ln -s [target_directory] [symlink_name]

• target_directory: The path to the directory or file you want to link to.
• symlink_name: The name you want to give to the symbolic link.

Example:

To create a symlink named my_link that points to a directory called my_directory, you would use:

ln -s my_directory my_link

After running this command, my_link will act as a shortcut to my_directory.
