Hello,
I am struggling to get an offline Wikipedia on my PW2. Epub or Mobi Is too limited so I figured I need to read directly from a ZIM file. I would like to try running a local miniwebserver with ZIMply Python package. (https://openzim.org/wiki/Readers) Then connect to it with a browser.

I however have no idea how to install the package on my Kindle.

When I try with Kterm I install pip with ensurepip but am unable to install the package due to 'low disk space' even though I have plenty of free space.

Is this even the right way to do this?
How does one install a new Python module?

Thanks for any help.
