## What it is
Kolibri is an offline-first learning platform for teaching and learning without internet access, developed by the nonprofit Learning Equality. It provides a self-hosted server with a library of open educational resources, learner progress tracking, and tools for educators to create lessons and assessments.

## Use cases
- run an offline learning platform in a school without internet
- distribute open educational resources to low-connectivity communities
- let teachers assign lessons and quizzes and track learner progress
- sync student work between an Android app and a classroom server
- host a local library of educational videos and exercises on a Raspberry Pi

## When to choose
- you need education technology that works fully offline
- you serve learners in low-connectivity or remote areas
- you want a free, open-source LMS with OER content in many languages

## When to avoid
- you need a full-featured internet-connected LMS with live video conferencing
- you need a general-purpose course platform for higher education with SCORM support
