WikiFundi, a software that provides off-line editing environment

←Back to list of resources
The WikiFundi is a software that provides off-line editing environment that mimics the Wikipedia environment. WikiFundi allows for training and contribution when technology, access and electricity outages fail or are not available at all. It enables individuals, groups and communities to learn how to edit Wikipedia, and to work on articles collaboratively. It requires a local server (such as a raspberry PI) which will provide a local network to which editors may contact. Once completed and connected to the internet, the articles produced can be uploaded to Wikipedia. Operates in French and English. The software is used in schools, for example during the WikiChallenge Ecoles d'Afrique http://www.wikifundi.org
