# iD - friendly JavaScript editor for [OpenStreetMap](http://www.openstreetmap.org/)
[![Build Status](https://secure.travis-ci.org/openstreetmap/iD.png)](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 modern browsers. Data is rendered with [d3](http://d3js.org/).
