Internet-in-a-Box (IIAB)
Welcome to the Git repository for Internet-in-a-Box (IIAB). This community-based project is enabled by professional volunteers around the world. Internet-in-a-Box (IIAB) is a small, inexpensive device which provides essential Internet resources (Wikipedia, OpenStreetMap, Khan Academy and others) without any Internet connection.
You are encouraged to customize this local content hotspot or server with the best of the world’s Free Knowledge — to suit your region, your school, your medical clinic, your library — and/or for your very own family.
Installation
Pre-releases of Internet-in-a-Box (IIAB) are available from http://download.iiab.io — click on the highest version number and then launch the 1-line installer.
Please see "What are the best places for community support?" at http://FAQ.IIAB.IO which has 40+ questions and answers to help you along the way, as you put together the digital knowledge hotspot most suitable for your own community.
The Installation wiki page has more intricate details e.g. if you're trying to install Internet-in-a-Box (IIAB) on a different Linux distribution that has not yet been tried.
Built with Ansible
FYI we use Ansible as the underlying technology to install, deploy, configure and manage the various software components.
Contributing
We greatly welcome contributions from educators, librarians and IT/UX/QA people of all kinds!
Please see "How can I help?" at http://FAQ.IIAB.IO
Check out our Contributors Guide to learn more about contributing directly to Internet-in-a-Box (IIAB) software and its open community architecture for education.
Thank you for helping us enable offline access to the Internet's open knowledge jewels, as well as "Sneakernet-of-Alexandria" distribution of local/indigenous content, where mass media channels do not serve grassroots voices.
