Kiwix er en offline browser for web indhold. Kiwix er specielt beregnet til at gøre Wikipedia tilgængelig offline (se funktioner). Med Kiwix kan du læse indholdet på Wikipedia på en båd midt i ingenting... eller i fængsel. Kiwix formår dette ved at læse ZIM filer, et kraftigt pakket åbent format med yderligere meta-data.
Kiwix benytter Mozilla software og er tilgægeligt på mere end 80 sprog. Der er fuld tekst søgning, fane navigation og mulighed for at eksportere artikler til PDF og HTML.
Kiwix er free software (GPL3), hvilket betyder at du frit må kopiere, modificere og dele det.
