With several thousand zim files to choose from, building one’s own config from the hotspot imager library can be a bit overwhelming. Where’s the good stuff?
Fortunately for all the preppers out there who use Kiwix, we built a selection for you!

How does it work?
You will need:
- a Raspberry Pi (3B or later);
- a 256GB microSD card.
Download the image onto your computer, flash it on the SDcard (we recommend Raspberry’s free imager), turn on your Raspberry Pi and look for a « ready » network.
Connect to it with your phone or computer and voilà!, you can now access all your ressources offline (you can even download them onto your phone if you need to move out of wi-fi range).
Awesome! Where can I get this?
Simply go to the imager page on this website, select the « Preppers » option, pay and wait for your email with a download link.
