Yeah, we’ve discussed it somewhere on forum before - it’s extra cool, and wise might i add, to have an offline archwiki :sunglasses:

Yeah, I wanna know this too.
I ran the commands arch-wiki-lite and arch-wiki-docs but command not found.

Quick Google, do this in terminal: wiki-search QUERY.

Did some further digging, HTML files are located here /usr/share/doc/arch-wiki/html/en

Just run firefox /usr/share/doc/arch-wiki/html/en/Table_of_contents.html

To find the files of a package, run

pacman -Fl <package>

You may have to run

pacman -Fy

before that works.

In the interests of making the ‘Arch Way’ install easier (for me) I installed the Archwiki app on my Android tablet. Definitely a worthwhile endeavour (sorry) :grin:
