Package Validation failed

My client has an azure application developed and is trying to create an offer for it in the marketplace. I added 2 JSON files coded/scripted in Windows VS Code and deployed on my client's Mac OS. After creating the zip folder for the application and deploying it in the marketplace I am receiving this error.

Package acceptance validation error: InvalidTemplate The template '__MACOSX/._createUiDefinition.json' is not a valid json file.

I ran a validation test on the JSON files also tried to search for some hidden folders and delete it but it is not working. Is there a workaround for this issue?

      Kidd_Ip Thank you for the help, I discovered that everytime I zipped the folder in Mac OS it automatically created the folder _MACOSX which was not required, there was no way to stop the MAC OS to create that folder inside the zipped folder. So I went ahead with Linux to create the zip folder and it worked.
