+The ZIP target builds basic [.zip archives](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZIP_(file_format)) containing your packaged application. There are no platform-specific dependencies for using this maker and it will run on any platform.
 
-### Usage
+## Usage
 
+To use `@electron-forge/maker-zip`, add it to the `makers` array in your Forge configuration.
+
+{% code title="forge.config.js" %}
+```javascript
+module.exports = {
+  makers: [
+    {
+      name: '@electron-forge/maker-zip'
+    }
+  ]
+};
+```
+{% endcode %}
+
+All configuration options are optional, and options are documented in the API docs for [MakerZIPConfig](https://js.electronforge.io/interfaces/_electron_forge_maker_zip.MakerZIPConfig.html).
+
+### Static file auto-updates (macOS)
+
+On macOS, the ZIP maker can be configured to generate update manifests to use with Electron's [autoUpdater](https://electronjs.org/docs/latest/api/auto-updater) module.
+
+{% code title="forge.config.js" %}
 ```javascript
+module.exports = {
+  makers: [
+    {
+      name: '@electron-forge/maker-zip',
+      config: (arch) => ({
+        macUpdateManifestBaseUrl: `https://my-bucket.s3.amazonaws.com/my-app-updates/darwin/${arch}`
+      })
+    }
+  ]
+};
+```
+{% endcode %}
+
+`macUpdateManifestBaseUrl` should be a path to an object storage bucket where you are storing your release assets. This bucket needs to be organized in folders by platform, then architecture.
+
+The first time you run `make` with this parameter configured, an architecture-specific `RELEASES.json` manifest will be generated. For example, if you are building v1.2.1 of `my-app` for arm64 (Apple Silicon):
+
+{% code title="forge.config.js" %}
+```json
 {
-  name: '@electron-forge/maker-zip'
+  "currentRelease": "1.2.1",
+  "releases": [
+    {
+      "version": "1.2.1",
+      "updateTo": {
+        "version": "1.2.1",
+        "pub_date": "2013-09-18T12:29:53+01:00",
+        "name": "my-app v1.2.1",
+        "url": "https://my-bucket.s3.amazonaws.com/my-app-updates/darwin/arm64/my-app-1.2.1-darwin-arm64.zip"
+      }
+    }
+  ]
 }
 ```
+{% endcode %}
+
+Once this asset is uploaded to the bucket, subsequent runs will read from the existing manifest at `https://my-bucket.s3.amazonaws.com/my-app-updates/darwin/arm64/RELEASES.json` and modify it to update the `currentRelease` property to the next version that is built.
+
+For end-to-end instructions on this process, including how to publish assets to S3 and set up the autoUpdater to read the `RELEASES.json` manifest, see the [Auto updating from S3](../publishers/s3.md#auto-updating-from-s3 "mention") guide.
