All content (ZIM files) are available at the Kiwix Online Library
Kiwix recommends using BitTorrent
Kiwix is perfect for reading Wikipedia offline. In order to read and enjoy the Wikipedia articles offline, you will need:
- Kiwix (the software)
- The ZIM file with the content of the specific linguistic Wikipedia the user want (e.g. Sindhi).
- Optionally, the pre-index ZIM file allows full-text searches.
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)
