'''Kiwix''' is an offline reader for online content like {{tag|Wikipedia}}, Project Gutenberg, or TED Talks. It makes knowledge available to people with no or limited [[:Category:Internet|internet]] access. The [[:Category:Software|software]], as well as the content, is free to use for anyone. It is potentially suitable for all [[:Category:HTML|HTML]] content. Kiwix supports the {{tag|ZIM (file format)|ZIM}} format, a highly compressed open file format with additional meta-data. Kiwix is a {{tag|non-profit}}, and is {{tag|open source}} and {{tag|free software}}, which means you can freely copy, modify, and distribute it. Kiwix is mostly installed in [[:Category:School|schools]], [[:Category:University|universities]], and [[:Category:Library|libraries]] which can't afford a [[:Category:Broadband|broadband]] internet access. It is much faster than the internet, and also can be used by many [[:Category:Institution|institutions]] to save bandwidth and reader's time. But many people use Kiwix for their own personal purposes, for example, of people suffering from censorship, or prisoners. Kiwix is small and efficient software, usable on lower powered or old computers. It runs on a large range of [[:Category:Operating system|operating systems]]; on [[:Category:Android|Android]], and on the three main PC operating systems: Microsoft [[:Category:Windows|Windows]], Apple [[:Category:Mac OS X|Mac OS X]], and [[:Category:GNU|GNU]] / [[:Category:Linux distribution|Linux distribution]]. Kiwix enables you to have the whole Wikipedia at hand wherever you go! On a boat, in the middle of nowhere, or in jail; Kiwix gives you access to the whole human {{tag|knowledge}}. You don't need internet, everything is stored on your [[:Category:Computers|computer]], [[:Category:USB|USB]] flash drive, or [[:Category:DVD|DVD]]! Originally concentrating on Wikipedia, Kiwix now also includes content from {{tag|Wiktionary}}, {{tag|Wikiquote}}, {{tag|Wikibooks}}, {{tag|Wikisource}}, {{tag|Wikinews}}, {{tag|Wikiversity}}, {{tag|Wikivoyage}}, and [[Wikispecies]], along with [https://wiki.Kiwix.org/wiki/Content many more English language websites], along with [https://wiki.Kiwix.org/wiki/Content_in_all_languages content in many more different languages].
