एक्सटेंशन उपयोग निर्देश

                        Kiwix is an offline Wikipedia (an many other offlined Web sites) viewer. See the official Web site: https://kiwix.org/

You need to download an archive (ZIM file) from https://library.kiwix.org, store it in on your device, and manually select it after starting the extension.

You can search among the article titles, and read any of them without any Internet access. All the content of Wikipedia is inside your device (including the images). It can also work with other works packed in the ZIM file format (see https://openzim.org for more details), but has been only tested on the Wikipedia ones.

If your Internet access is expensive/rare/slow/unreliable/watched/censored, you still can browse this amazing amount of knowledge and culture.

Full unbundled source code of the extension is available from https://github.com/kiwix/kiwix-js.
