Zathura is a free, plugin-based document viewer. Plugins are available for PDF (via poppler or MuPDF), PostScript and DjVu. It was written to be lightweight and controlled with vi-like keybindings. Zathura's customizability makes it well-liked by many Linux users.[4]

Zathura has official packages available in Arch Linux,[5] Void Linux,[6] Debian,[7] Fedora,[8] Gentoo,[9] OpenBSD,[10] OpenSUSE,[11] Source Mage,[12] Ubuntu,[13] GuixSD,[14] and an unofficial macOS package provided by MacPorts.[15]

Zathura was named after the 2002 book Zathura and the 2005 film Zathura: A Space Adventure.[16]
