About Kiwix - Empowering Access to Knowledge Offline- Kiwix

Learn about Kiwix's mission to provide offline access to knowledge and educational content. Discover how we empower individuals to explore information without an internet connection

From the About-page:

Did you know that you could store the entirety of Wikipedia on your phone? And read it anywhere, at anytime? […]

We can make highly compressed copies of entire websites that each fit into a single (.zim) file. Zim files are small enough that they can be stored on users’ mobile phones, computers or small, inexpensive Hotspot.

Kiwix then acts like a regular browser, except that it reads these local copies. People with no or limited internet access can enjoy the same browsing experience as anyone else.

The software as well as the content are fully open-source and free to use and share.

    What a coincidence. I was just trying out kiwix on my system just earlier. While it didn’t fit what I was looking for (I was looking for an offline dictionary program), I think it’s still quite neat.
