I would suggest setting up a 'forward proxy' on localhost with a piece of software such as nginx. With a sufficiently large hard disk or SSD, you can set the cache lifetime to be something very long like a month or two. Ideally, you'll be able to have your most frequented Web pages available offline. In practice, I've found DNS to be the biggest challenge, as browsers like to check the domain name too frequently; you'll probably need to cache that as well. I can share a prototype nginx configuration that I have been trying, if you like. More immediately, Kiwix is fantastic for this. I have the entirety of Wiktionary downloaded - the complete "English to X dictionary" where X is about 50 languages - and it only takes up 8GiB. Install at least two different Kiwix client applications; there are occasionally glitches that make one unable to show a certain page. Wikipedia and Stack Overflow might be good Kiwix libraries for your use-case. |
