Welcome to the Internet-in-a-Box (IIAB) Tech Docs Wiki!

Internet-in-a-Box (IIAB) is a project that provides individuals and organizations with a way to create their own offline version of the internet. This can be done by installing IIAB on an old laptop or PC, or more commonly, on a Raspberry Pi computer. Once installed and configured, IIAB will provide users access to a wide variety of content, including websites, articles, electronic books, Wikipedia in any language, thousands of Khan Academy videos, zoomable OpenStreetMap, WordPress journaling, Toys from Trash electronics projects, and more.

The IIAB Wiki is a place where documentation for the project can be found and edited by anyone in the IIAB community. The Wiki is organized into different sections, each containing information on a specific topic related to IIAB. If you are new to the project, we recommend starting with the Raspberry Pi Beginner's Guide, which will walk you through the process of setting up IIAB on a Raspberry Pi. For more advanced users, the Wiki also contains information on IIAB architecture, networking, and content management. Additionally, there are HOW-TO videos available that cover various topics related to IIAB. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them on the mailing lists or on the IIAB forums. You are invited to edit any page in this Wiki — after logging-in using your credentials. Please also take a moment to read Internet-in-a-Box (IIAB)'s NEW Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ).
