Project overview
Kiwix JS PWA lets users download ZIM archives and browse resources such as Wikipedia, Project Gutenberg, TED Talks, Wikivoyage, and Stack Exchange while offline. It can be installed as an offline-capable progressive web app, used through packaged desktop builds, or self-hosted from a container. The relevant ZIM archive must be obtained first, because the offline content is served from locally stored files.
