This page describes how to set up Haitian wikis on your machine. The following two options are available:
</p>
<h3>
<spanclass="mw-headline"id="Download_pre-built_wikis_from_archive.org">Download pre-built wikis from archive.org</span>
</h3>
<ul>
<li>
<b>Faster</b>: The build process is skipped completely. All you have to do is download the wikis
</li>
<li>
<b>Simpler</b>: The wikis are pre-compiled HTML, so you don't have to set-up Wikidata or other pre-requisites. Since the wiki is just being downloaded, not built, there are less things that can go wrong
</li>
<li>
<b>Less recent</b>: The wikis need to be manually generated and uploaded by me. If you find that the wikis below are out of date, you can create an issue at github.org or try building them yourself.
<b>Slower</b>: It takes an extra few hours to build the wiki
</li>
<li>
<b>Slightly harder</b>: These wikis work best with Wikidata on your machine. See <ahref="http://xowa.org/home/wiki/App/Wiki_types/Wikidata.html"id="xolnki_2"title="App/Wiki types/Wikidata">App/Wiki types/Wikidata</a>. In additon, the build process may not work on certain low-end machines like Raspberry Pi
</li>
<li>
<b>Always recent</b>: The wikis will be built using the latest dump from Wikimedia at <ahref="https://dumps.wikimedia.org/backup-index.html"rel="nofollow"class="external free">https://dumps.wikimedia.org/backup-index.html</a>
</li>
</ul>
<p>
In addition, both options have an <b>automatic</b> and a <b>manual</b> route. More detail is provided below.
