Hi
These last days we have released updates for our Javascript based Kiwix
ports. As a reminder, these ports are not full featured like native code
based Kiwix ports and might be a bit slower, but offer other nice
properties. For example. thanks to their portability, we support systems
on which it would be otherwise impossible to have Wikipedia offline...
and more.
We have released new versions of our extensions for Web browsers, Kiwix JS:
* For Chrome:

* For Firefox:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/kiwix-offline/
Kiwix JS 2.2.0 Changelog:
* Support for StackExchange ZIM files (and maybe for some other ZIM
files with a structure * different than the Mediawiki-based ZIM files).
* Compatibility with split English wikipedia ZIM files (which now have
more than 26 files).
* Rename the project to Kiwix-JS instead of Kiwix-html5.
* Slightly improved memory handling of content decompression.
* Library updates (jQuery, Bootstrap, requireJS).
* Improved continuous integration (automated testing on several browsers).
* Avoid unnecessary 404 errors on images.
* Minor UI enhancements and fixes.
* Some code refactoring/cleaning on the way we handle the jQuery mode.
* Make geo: and tel: links work.
But we have also updated Kiwix JS for Windows and released the version
0.9.6. It's available here for Windows mobile and almost all Windows
based systems:

Last but not least, we have also started to release Custom apps for
Windows, which mean supporting only one type of content, by creating a
Wikivoyage offline app for windows here:

Hope you will enjoy all or part of these new apps, features and bug fixes.
Regards
Emmanuel
