Biodiversity ZIM by Wikipedia
Well yes you can, but you will need to post the request at https://github.com/openzim/zim-requests/issues
-
Has anybody ever tried to download all of the MIT OpenCourseWare?
I see their content is under a CC-license, so it's fair game for Kiwix. Open a ticket at https://github.com/openzim/zim-requests/issues to have it added to the queue.
-
Kiwix is hiring a python dev to help build new scrapers
As for scrapers of interest, well there's always some maintenance needed on the existing ones if you need a warmup of sorts, and I wouldn't mind it if mwoffliner was also able to pick up on wikia/fandom websites. Other than that on our current wishlist there's also code.org, or even manuallibs.com if you are really bad at design (as the ticket explains we might want the content but not the website design).
-
Is there a way to download TV Tropes for offline browsing?
I see a request from last year, and seems there are/were throttling issues with it. There is currently a 1GB .zim file in the linked folder though.
-
How to create a ZIM collection?
To submit this to the kiwix library, your best option would probably to create an issue in the zim-requests github repo.
-
WikiHow and StackOverflow now available on the Library
Open a ticket at https://github.com/openzim/zim-requests/issues - if there's an off-the-shelf solution for the website you requested then it'll be added to the zimfarm/library.
-
Monday feature wishlist: what would you want to see on Kiwix as a priority?
Yo, you know you can request specific websites to be scraped at https://github.com/openzim/zim-requests/issues ?
-
Is there a quick way to turn a GitHub wiki into a zim?
I don't think that's possible as of yet but 1. There is a ticket for ReadtheDocs https://github.com/openzim/zim-requests/issues/446
-
Is there a Kiwix Translation file?
Not that I know, but you can ask for confirmation on r/kiwix or if you have a specific website in mind then file a request on the zim-requests github repository.
-
Other knowledge bases, libraries, encyclopedias besides Wikipedia because of censorship?
The help we need there is to have someone scout around the internets, list resources that are up for the taking (usually Creative Commons-licensed, in one flavour or another) and open a zim-request on github.

My personal guide on how to read .zim files that use service workers on your desktop
Please note that Zimit support in the PWA is experimental, and it may struggle with highly dynamic content. Any issues can be reported to me here. Kiwix devs will be working on standardized (and hopefully more universal) Zimit support across the range of apps, with dedicated developer focus planned for the end of May.

New useability update for Kiwix JS for Linux and Windows v2.3.0
u/Nibb31 There's no need to run it in Docker, as you can compile the Electron versions on either Linux or Windows simply by cloning the Repo and running npm install --save-dev, then npm start to test, or npm run dist-linux (or dist-win), to make packages. See scripts in package.json. It uses electron-builder to build the apps, in case you're familiar with its CLI.
