Is there a way to compile a project and deploying it as a

A default build of a D program is *reasonably* compatible. All
its dependencies are core operating system components like
libc. Now, there can certainly be libc version
incompatibilities, but there's a decent chance it will just
work.
I'm pretty sure this is the exact same situation Go is in; the
default Go and D builds link the same way.
If you want to eliminate the potential C lib incompatibility
too, you can do it basically the same way as in C, passing
options to gcc with dmd's -L thing like `-L-static
-L-nodefaultlib -L-lsome_alternate_clib`
On the same note, has https://wiki.dlang.org/DIP59 been dropped?
