== Library ==
The library directory should contain the library files (library.xml for example). The library files are a set of XML file in [[FeedFormat|this format]] which describes which content are available, where are the index, etc...
 
To created this library file, use [[kiwix-manage]] or edit it manually (be careful, paths must be relative).
 
== DVD launcher ==
You can build a DVD launcher (autorun.exe) for Windows users. Read this [http://kiwix.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/kiwix/moulinkiwix/autorun/README?view=markup README]. You can also download a pre-compiled version [http://download.kiwix.org/dev/launcher/ here].
 
== Windows installer ==
 
You can easily build an installer. Please read this [http://kiwix.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/kiwix/moulinkiwix/installer/README README]. If you want an already compiled installer, you may download a portable version kiwix (only the software) which is always provided with an installer [https://sourceforge.net/projects/kiwix/files/ here]. This installer is able to install Kiwix and will dynamically copied the files in /data.
 
== ISO ==
<source lang="bash">
mkisofs -r -J -o ./dvd.iso ./dvd
</source>
 
== To download ==
We already prepare portable version of Kiwix with content. Files are downloadable [http://download.kiwix.org/portable/ here].
