I want to be able to access and edit my world without an internet connection.

   

An app to download would be perfect but just a feature to download my world so i can add and edit articles offline would work.

Thanks for the info. I should have done more research as I didn't realize it had been discussed previously.

The Team's Response

Thanks for the suggestion! Such a change to our infrastructure would have massive ripple effects to the entire system and would significantly slow down development. We're not outright declining this because a potential future mobile app might have some limited offline support (or it might not—we don't know yet).

    I think would be great. I travel to conventions and sometimes getting intent isn't always reliable or affordable to use. to get this instilled on my laptop and update thing as it happens would be great.

    As much as I would love to see this, I'm pretty sure, similar suggestions were made in the past and got declined because it would be way too complicated and too much work for the current team. Sadly, I have no idea about how to use API, so that's not an option for me, but yeah, I don't see this coming, though it would be amazing.

    I'm still going to vote for this regardless. It's a feature I'd love and it would be a vast improvement to my current option of using another tool and having to add things live manually.

    With the APIs, you could download an article, edit, then upload it again. But you'd have to develop your own tool for it. Let me know if anyone makes one! I could really use it in mobile deadzones.

    While I am, in principle, all for offline access, the team have said on multiple occasions that this will not be feasible, since they are a very small team.
