    Reference implementation of the ZIM specification

  • This is low-level stuff, but the new release of the backend that powers Kiwix clients, libzim 8.1.0 (changelog), now targets WebAssembly (a.k.a. WASM). This is big because it potentially brings the full powers of the Kiwix backend to Web apps such as Kiwix JS and Kiwix JS PWA/Electron. Up till now, these apps have relied on a custom JS port of parts of libzim, but it lacked full features, such as Full Text search. So, you will begin to see us integrating new features into the Web versions soon!
