About jquery: i mean what about a d function similar to $() jquery function for better elements handling (instead of getElementById() )
Have you seen my dom library? :P It's all server side but it is just awesome. Lots of convenience functions, getting elements is easy, and operating on them as a group is too, either through a wrapper struct or just using foreach yourself. I definitely want to port some of it to the javascript output. https://github.com/adamdruppe/misc-stuff-including-D-programming-language-web-stuff the file is dom.d. It also depends on characterencodings.d. The most jquery-like interface is Document's opIndex: document[`#something .my-thing > p`].addClass("matched") .appendText("matched me!"); Though, I really think that querySelectorAll + foreach wipes out jquery's element selection advantage. querySelectorAll is in all browsers IE8 and up. Adding foreach to javascript can be done with text macro (see html.d in my github) or D->JS of course has foreach too! The zip of d->js actually breaks on foreach here, but it was an easy fix. I'll push up the changes this next weekend. Anyway, here's how it looks: foreach(element; document.querySelectorAll("#blah > p")) // do something to element
