Kiwix-plug is a solution which provides a public Wifi hotspot allowing every person with a Wifi network card and a device to surf Wikipedia (or any content available as a ZIM file). Kiwix-plug is based on a small server call plug computer which is a computer as big as a fist and directly plugable on the power network.
The first development of this solution is granted by Wikimédia France in the scope of the Afripedia project.
