Hi,
I bumped into a blog talking about building a (toy) browser
engine in Rust:
(http://limpet.net/mbrubeck/2014/08/08/toy-layout-engine-1.html)
In the blog I found that the OP is in the mozilla servo team
building a parallel browser for mozilla. The servo is hosted on
github here:

Yes, rust is a more infantile language compared to D, but
people are already using them to create complicate applications
like browser! This kind of projects would become a huge drive
force to strengthen best practices in the language/lib design
and attract newcomers.
When I learned about Clojure, and found that an editor/ide
[Light Table](http://lighttable.com) was written entirely by
Clojure(script), was really intrigged. [Atom](http://atom.io)
is written in nodejs/coffeescript.
So I wonder, is there similar projects in D that I can take
part, learn and enjoy?
I see the current hotspot of D are compilers、libs、http-server
and game area, but haven't encountered an application project
such as an editor, music player, etc.
Manu started a project a while back which you may be interested
in looking at.
