A cross‑platform desktop and Android client for WikiToLearn that actually saves pages offline, downloads images (including converting SVGs to PNG), and tracks downloads with SQLite tracking downloads and revision IDs so updates replace old content. It uses the Qt framework with a C++ backend and QML/JavaScript UI, detects each OS’s public directory, bundles missing CSS/JS when the API omits it, and demonstrates working offline after fixing early prototype UX and API‑compatibility issues.
