ZIM Request for Wiki

I like it and can see that OpenZim has Libzim bindings for Python that could be used with Gramps to have a local copy of the wiki/documentation. How difficult would it be for the Gramps project itself to create the ZIM file? Gioto (talk) 05:27, 25 March 2025 (UTC)

I like that idea, maybe raise a feature request for idea? CallMeDave (talk)

Translating the user manual

It was needed and the page did not show your advice or mine. Thanks CallMeDave (talk)
