In other words, the decision to use SVG rather than canvas was a classic performance

vs. implementation cost tradeoff with strong arguments for trading off performance to

## Can I use iD offline?
|
||||
|
||||
iD does not currently have an offline mode.
|
||||
|
||||
To support offline usage requires caching or providing an offline proxy for the three
|
||||
main things iD uses the network for:
|
||||
|
||||
* Downloading existing data -- this is done on demand as you pan around
|
||||
* Downloading tiles -- ditto
|
||||
* Uploading changes
|
||||
|
||||
We've though a little about [caching tiles](https://github.com/systemed/iD/issues/127)
|
||||
and downloaded data, but haven't actively worked on it, nor on the data download/upload
|
||||
question.
