# Wrapping up Google Summer of Code

Posted by kepta on 22 August 2016 in English.

3 months have passed and GSoC is about to an end. This small diary post showcases my contributions uptill now and it also lays down my next actions.

Major Contributions

### Lane editor The lane editor is my primary objective of the GSoC for this summer. These diary posts (1, 2) can be referred to get updated with the work.

Currently, most of the functional code is ready with 81 test cases testing most if not all edge cases possible. This code parses the osm data and gives a nice JSON output, which should then be supplied to the rendering.

Making iD modular

The iD contributors felt the need to start using the new ES6 module system back in April. I helped in the phase 1 and phase 2 of this process.

Next Steps

Well GSoC 2016 is approaching an end, but not my contributions. There are lot of things pending in my bucket list. The first thing I would like to finish in the coming months would be the lane editor’s UI and deploy it for the use of OSM community.

I am really proud to be one of the core contributors of iD and would really like to thank the community, my mentor Bryan Housel and Google for the awesome GSoC program.

Thanks for your good work! I’m really looking forward to having the lane editor in iD - it’s going to be awesome B-)

Thanks Kushan!! It has been wonderful to have you as a colleague and a core contributor on the iD project. Simple but detailed lane editing that everybody can use will be so valuable for the OpenStreetMap project. Can’t wait to complete the project and see what you want to build next!
