A new full English Wikipedia file for Kiwix, an offline web content browser, is now available for download to anyone who wants to browse offline or have a local backup of the online encyclopedia.

The file was released by a person on Reddit who shared it in a post. The post contains a link to the Kiwix website, which contains instructions and the ZIM file (89 GB) (a format for offline wiki content) available for download.Wikipedia - Wikipedia download the encyclopedia on your computer

Wikipedia does it regularly dumps of its databases, which Kiwix compresses into a file so that it can be more easily shared. For its latest archive, Kiwix launched its June 23 Wikipedia database.

The Wikimedia Foundation, the non-profit organization that hosts Wikipedia, funded part of the Kiwix project.

Kiwix creates and distributes Wikipedias files in all languages, but the English version is by far the largest. A new full English Wikipedia archive from Kiwix is ​​available from October 2018.
