# iD - friendly JavaScript editor for [OpenStreetMap](http://www.openstreetmap.org/)
[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/openstreetmap/iD.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/openstreetmap/iD)
## Basics
* iD is a JavaScript [OpenStreetMap](http://www.openstreetmap.org/) editor.
* It's intentionally simple. It lets you do the most basic tasks while
not breaking other people's data.
* It supports all popular modern desktop browsers: Chrome, Firefox, Safari,
Opera, Edge, and IE11.
* iD is not yet designed for mobile browsers, but this is something we hope to add!
* Data is rendered with [d3.js](http://d3js.org/).
## Participate!
* Read the project [Code of Conduct](CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md) and remember to be nice to one another.
* Read up on [Contributing and the code style of iD](CONTRIBUTING.md).
* See [open issues in the issue tracker](https://github.com/openstreetmap/iD/issues?state=open) if you're looking for something to do.
* [Translate!](https://github.com/openstreetmap/iD/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#translating)
* Test a prerelease version of iD:
* Stable mirror of `release` branch: http://openstreetmap.us/iD/release
* Development mirror of `master` branch: http://openstreetmap.us/iD/master
Come on in, the water's lovely. More help? Ping `jfire` or `bhousel` on
[OpenStreetMap IRC](http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/IRC)
(`irc.oftc.net`, in `#iD` or `#osm-dev` or `#osm`) or on the [OpenStreetMap `dev` mailing list](http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Mailing_lists).
## Prerequisites
* [Node.js](http://nodejs.org/) version 4 or newer
* Command line development tools (`make`, `git`, and a compiler) for your platform
* Ubuntu:
* `sudo apt-get install build-essential git`
* macOS:
* Install [Xcode](https://developer.apple.com/xcode/) and run `xcode-select --install` from a command line
* Windows (Cygwin):
* Install [Git for Windows](https://git-scm.com/downloads)
* Install [Cygwin](https://cygwin.com/install.html) - choose default packages + `make`, `wget`, `apache2` (needed for updated mime type list)
* Optionally, install [apt-cyg](https://github.com/transcode-open/apt-cyg) for managing your Cygwin packages
* Edit `~/.bashrc`:<br/>
Put Git for Windows before Cygwin in PATH, otherwise `npm install` may [fail to fetch git repositories](https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/7456)<br/><pre>
export PATH=/cygdrive/c/Program\ Files/Git/mingw64/bin/:$PATH</pre>
* Edit `~/.gitconfig`:<br/>
