WHEN THERE IS
NO INTERNET
. THERE IS
KIWIX
Made for
Everyone.
Powered
by
Collaboration.
We’re counting on
You!
When [almost] all roads lead to GitHub!
Kiwix is a Free/Libre Software and exists thanks to volunteers like yourself. It is a vast structure across many repositories and platforms, though o
ur
development is mostly handled via GitHub and spread across these three organisations:
Kiwix
Everything related to the Apps and general matters.
GitHub/kiwix
openZIM
All things related to scrapers and content.
GitHub/openzim
offspot
Everything related to Kiwix Hotspot systems and hardware.
GitHub/offspot
