Kiwix recommends using BitTorrent

Kiwix is perfect for reading many different types of content - like for example Wikipedia - offline.

In order to read and enjoy all of them, you will need:

Kiwix (the software)
The ZIM file with the content of your choice.

Once Kiwix (the software) is installed you have many ways to download content (files):

With Kiwix if your version of Kiwix allows it. Once you have Kiwix open, go to the Kiwix internal library to pick your content.
BitTorrent which downloads the file with a torrent software. Using BitTorrent saves our bandwidth and verifies that your file is not corrupted during the download process.
Direct download which downloads the file directly with your browser.

Remark: More information about the ZIM file names nomenclature can be found here (in English)

Content flavor

  * "mini" means that only a subset of the text is available, probably
     the first section
  * "nopic" means that most pictures have been removed
  * "maxi" means everything except large media files like video/audio
  * no indication means we have done our best to scrape everything

  You might also rarely find:

  * "nodet", which means that this is a text subset but
     pictures and videos should be there.
