Finely julienne the zucchini lenghtwise to create long "matchstick" strips, or use a spiral slicer.
Place the zucchini in a colander and toss with the salt. Set the colander in the sink and let sit for 1 hour.
Rinse the zucchini very, very thoroughly (have a taste to make sure there's no salt left at all). Drain on a tea towel or paper towels to get rid of as much moisture as possible.
Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the zucchini and cook, stirring gently but frequently, until the zoodles are cooked al dente, 4 to 5 minutes. If there's a lot of liquid in the pan., turn up the heat.
Serve with marinara, pesto, bolognese, or your favorite sauce.
