Hi
We just have released updates for our Javascript based Kiwix
ports for Chrome & Firefox browsers, Windows mobile and Xbox devices as
for UBports (Ubuntu Touch).
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, like for example an excellent portability.
You can find the new Browser extensions:
* Chrome:

* Firefox:

Kiwix JS 2.3.0 Changelog:
* Add a cache on CSS stylesheets to improve performance in jQuery mode
* Change the technical way to display articles, so that all CSS styles
can be loaded, and to avoid other technical issues
* Make the content visible only when CSS styles are read, in order to
avoir repaints that can be very slow
* Fix redirections in ServiceWorker mode in ZIM files like
StackExchange, and make the ServiceWorker handle all the articles
(including the main one, and the first displayed after a search or
random search)
* Fix links with an anchor in the URL
* In recent wikipedia and other wikimedia ZIM files, open all the
sections when using a small screen (mobile stylesheet), so that the
content remains readable (it only works in jQuery mode, this should be
fixed in ServiceWorker mode in next version)
* Fix CSS UTF-8 encoding

Work continues on our forge at
https://github.com/kiwix/kiwix-js and
https://github.com/kiwix/kiwix-js-windows.
Hope you will enjoy all or part of these new apps, features and bug fixes.
Regards
Emmanuel
