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:

  1. Kiwix (the software)
  2. 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.

All content (ZIM files) are available at the Kiwix Online Library

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