About

Kiwix lets you read Wikipedia and other web content without an internet connection. You open an archive in the ZIM format and browse it like a website, which helps where connections are slow, expensive or missing.

It is a viewer and manager for ZIM files on Linux and Windows 10 and 11. ZIM is a highly compressed open format that stores pages along with extra metadata, so large collections take less space on your disk. You can manage your ZIM files from the app itself.

Highlights

  • Reads Wikipedia archives in ZIM format
  • Works on Linux and Windows 10 and 11
  • Manages your ZIM files in the app
