i missed this in the answer sorry,
its clear that its not working you are saying that
ONLY requests to "/" shall be served with the staticFiles.
this makes no sense.
for static files you would want a catch all route at the end, and
before that you define a few other routes that serve specific
strings.
check this:

router.get("/", &showHome); // GET / is handled by the showHome
function
router.get("/about", staticTemplate!"about.dt"); // GET /about
is handlet by the template
router.get("*", serveStaticFiles("public")); // every other get
request goes here and checks if a filename exists within the
public folder. so e.g.
GET /foo.html is either served public/foo.html if it exists or
returns an 404
