Unlike most other learning platforms, Kolibri supports users that don't necessarily have fast or consistent internet access.

While it can be hosted in the cloud, it is designed to run on a local network so that the experience is fast and responsive, and is specific for the needs in places with limited internet. Content and data can be synced to other locations as-needed.

Thanks. If the content is likely to be entirely cloud based, would this then be inappropriate due to the platform being built around local and location syncing?

If you mean there's a server-side component to the content, then no Kolibri would not work.

Kolibri supports a range of offline-friendly, self-contained formats such as videos, exercises, HTML-based apps, PDFs, and e-books. These can be uploaded to the cloud-based Kolibri Studio [1] and then synced to the learning platform. We also maintain a large collection of openly-licensed educational resources [2] freely available for immediate use.
