Ignoring the lack of tools, documentation, etc
I must say that it is summarized very well. Especially that it
is focusing implementing the latest cool feature instead of
stability.
Yeah... Sure... and after all that constructive, accurate and
subtle criticism, the guy says: "I love D, i really do [... but
blablabla]". That's funny, in some sort of convoluted way.
Anyway, I quite agree with the article. I'm currently playing
with D and some Vulkan demos, and translating some C++ tutorial
code to D is very easy and gives a much more readable syntax.
ie.: simple stuff like:
std::vector<VkBuffer> uniformBuffers;
VS
VkBuffer[] uniformBuffers;
