• iD is a JavaScript OpenStreetMap 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, and Edge.
• iD is not yet designed for mobile browsers, but this is something we hope to add!
• Data is rendered with d3.js.

• Read the project Code of Conduct and remember to be nice to one another.
• Read up on Contributing and the code style of iD.
• See open issues in the issue tracker if you're looking for something to do.
• Translate!
• Test a prerelease version of iD:
  • Stable mirror of release branch: https://ideditor-release.netlify.app
  • Development mirror of develop branch + latest translations: https://ideditor.netlify.app

To run the current development version of iD on your own computer:

The repository is reasonably large, and it's unlikely that you need the full history (~200 MB). If you are happy to wait for it all to download, run:

git clone https://github.com/openstreetmap/iD.git

To clone only the most recent version, instead use a 'shallow clone':

git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/openstreetmap/iD.git

If you want to add in the full history later on, perhaps to run git blame or git log, run git fetch --depth=1000000

1. cd into the newly cloned project folder
2. Run npm install
3. Run npm run all
4. Run npm start
5. Open http://127.0.0.1:8080/ in a web browser
