How can I browse Wikipedia's offline database on Linux?
I've got Wikipedia's offline database in .xml.bz2
format. There is also a software WikiTaxi to browse through it. But the problem is WikiTaxi is a Windows only software.
Is there any similar software that works on Ubuntu/Linux.
Please don't suggest me about Wine.
Solution 1:
Kiwix is an offline reader for Web content. It's especially intended to make Wikipedia available offline (see features). This is done by reading the content of the project stored in a file format ZIM, a high compressed open format with additional meta-data.
Kiwix is a free software (GPL3), that means you can freely copy, modify and spread it.1
