Just for fun and proof-of-concept I went ahead and forked the
dlang.org site. I basically took the
`do-what-everybody-else-is-doing` approach:

It is still a wip, but the landing page and the language
reference (see Docs menu-item) is working.
Doing the ddoc was a maze of macro's at first. But spending a
couple of hours untangling the mess, I finally found the ones I
needed to change. After that things went pretty smooth. So ddoc
ain't that bad. It is just that I didn't have syntax
highlighting - nor goto-definition - and I hate that.
Still, it is cool in a way that I can just change some macro's,
tweak the index.dd, the doc.ddoc and don't have to worry about
all the other pages.
BTW, the build process on windows was way easier than linux. In
fact, I could not get the makefile to run on linux at all.
Looking into posix.mak, I see a blur of path's, all
misconfigured, and I bet I am supposed to set those manually. I
don't get it, doesn't everything has its own place? Isn't dmd
always installed in /usr/bin, /usr/include/dmd and that stuff?
I suppose not everyone is using the same distro. Or they are,
except me :)
Awesome! I really like the one-click Download and Forum buttons.
Idea: DUB logo could link to DUB downloads
