+Tiled is a general purpose tile map editor. It is meant to be used for
+editing maps of any tile-based game, be it an RPG, a platformer or a
+Breakout clone.
+
+Tiled is very flexible, for example there are no restrictions on map
+size, tile size or the number of layers or tiles. Also, it allows
+arbitrary properties to be set on the map, its layers, the tiles or on
+the objects. Its map format (TMX) is relatively easy to understand and
+allows a map to use multiple tilesets while also allowing each tileset
+to grow or shrink as necessary later.
