Result
The hackathon was a success. We achieved to prepare a first version of Kiwix. We finally decided to combine a native Android UI with a native binary code coming from the C++ code. The result is a beautiful app. but also fast.

We have now an Android Application working on Android4 or later. It runs on devices based on ARM, Intel atom and MIPS CPUs.

The APK package is available here:
