ln - make links between files
ln command is used to create a symbolic link. By default ln creates a hard link, but we can use -s option to create a symbolic link.
ln -s {ORIGINAL_FILE} {LINKED_FILE}This will create a symbolic link.
ln -sf {ORIGINAL_FILE} {LINKED_FILE}Note: -f option overwrites the exisiting symbolic link.
ln -s {ORIGINAL_DIRECTORY} {DIRECTORY_TO_BE_LINKED}This creates a symbolic link link between two directories.
To remove a symbolic link, we can either remove the linked file by using rm or use unlink to do the same thing.
rm {LINKED_FILE}
unlink {LINKED_FILE}Source: phoenixNAP
