<description>
<p>
Kiwix is an offline reader - meaning that it allows you to check text or video that is normally only available on the internet.
</p>
<p>
We turn various online educational contents (such as Wikipedia, for example) into ZIM files, and these can be opened by Kiwix even if you have no connectivity whatsoever.
Kiwix is dedicated to providing offline access to educational content.
</p><p>
Kiwix makes knowledge available to people with no or limited Internet access.
</p><p>
Kiwix is an offline reader for content like Wikipedia, Project Gutenberg, TED Talks, IFixit... and <a href="https://library.kiwix.org">thousands of others</a>.
</p><p>
Kiwix deals with highly compressed snapshots of 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 WiFi Hotspot.
</p><p>
Kiwix then acts like a regular Web browser, except that it reads these local copies. People with no or limited internet access can enjoy the same browsing experience as being online.
</p><p>
The name “Kiwix” is a play on the word “Wiki” as it represented our initial goal of making Wikipedia accessible offline.
</p><p>
Kiwix is free and open-source.
