An amazing app, that makes searching through the Arch Wiki much easier and nicer on mobile. A must for when X or Wayland breaks.
Awesome that this exists. It would be even better if dark theme was offered, and if this could be offered as an offline application for Linux. 10/10 would Arch again.
Nice app! However it'd be cool if you could add a dark theme, since using it now is rather blinding. Thanks for the app though!
It's a very nice app optimizes wiki pages for viewing on phone
It's great to have a reference guide for my chosen OS in my pocket.
Waste of space. Doesn't even work. Just use your web browser.
A must-have resource for all users of any distro, not just Arch alone.
Really good to visualize the wiki. Btw I use arch
Good to browse through the wiki for someone like me who is learning post the installation process
I just need a Gentoo wiki app and then I'll be set. LFS would be nice too.
Very useful, thank you :)
A must have for distro hoppers and Arch users!
wow, my archlinux, decilious, thanks to this arthor
great! btw I use arch
I use arch, btw.
Needed this in my life
Remember to RTFM
was a convenient means of accessing the archwiki website before the app mysteriously stopped working. Did the job well enough when it wasn't broken. Wishful thinking would be seeing the app fixed. Even more wishful thinking would be seeing it not only fixed, but upgraded to support saving pages to view offline and low-light-friendly light-on-dark themes/user-defined-css
It doesn't work anymore. I'm getting this 'No title found' message in the header. By the way, the app was great before this problem occurred. The only bad thing was that it didn't have the offline mode.
Great! Thogh it would be nice if we could get a dark mode and especially a find in page feature.
Everything needed to develop and build in your Arch system.
Simple. Wish it could be used offline.
Helpful while installing and learning archlinux!
Great but it really need bookmarks / favorites
Great app. Thanks!
Great to have when I crash my Linux box
Great for reading the wiki during the initial setup of my system!
Much better than browsing the wiki with your phone (or tablet's) browser. Everything is presented in a uniform manner & is comparable to viewing it on your PC, albeit on a smaller screen. Definitely helps when you need to fix something & don't want to switch back to your desktop browser while working through the problem.
I cannot tell you how many times this has come in handy when I bork my arch install and can't boot to X. The pages are wonderfully formatted and work great on even smallish screens. I have only noticed one bug, and that is when you click a link to a subsection of another article, it brings you to the beginning of the article and not the subsection. However, this is absolutely not a deal breaker and I'm mentioning it more for the sake of the devs. I'd also like to see an app for the forum, if possible!
Looking at screenshots I thought the app would simply display the wiki like a normal web browser. Instead I learned that it actually optimises it to the phone screen's size, which is very good for reading without having to scroll horizontally all the time. A nice addition would be wiki bookmarks.
