Curiosity, what libraries do you feel a lack of?
For work, that would be:
* Database drivers for Postgres and SQLite
https://github.com/etcimon/d2sqlite3
async with vibe.d :
https://github.com/pszturmaj/ddb/blob/master/examples/basic.d#L7
* ORM
https://github.com/buggins/hibernated
* Unit test framework. I want something like RSpec
I always got around fine with unittest { } and some imagination
* RabbitMQ and ActiveMQ
C=>D binding and register sockets in libasync?
* Some way to interface with Selenium and PhantomJS
You need to write the javascript to a file and use executeShell or
pipeShell.
I wanted to write a forward proxy in vibe.d though so that we can
actually handle the headers/cookies and analyze the contents over the
wire. I'm not sure if there's a language that does that already
For non work related things it would also be:
* Sass
https://github.com/Lodin/sassed
* CoffeeScript
https://github.com/MartinNowak/diet-coffee/blob/master/source/diet_coffee.d#L23
* I would prefer HAML over that templates used in vibe.d but I guess
there' close enough

You seem to be active member of the community. Why not attempt to solve
those? Doesn't seem like it would take that long (all the primitives are
there).
@rikki > I really do want to fix this. Unfortunately writing everything
from a an actual webserver to the template live reloading is a lot
harder then you'd think. Which is unfortunate.
You should have everything you need to write a D version of Wordpress
using its code as a reference. Maybe with vibe.d, putting the data in
Redis and using some lua scripting for themes or configuration files. It
would take some imagination but it's not at all impossible to achieve it.
What can I say? I like doing things 100% or not at all. Design wise atleast.
Oh one more thing, my next web service framework will be using lua for
templates. The only thing not implemented is passing in data models. Its
just even with luad binding D models to it is quite hard. Doable within
a few days if the ORM is ready to go but when you add everything up. Ugh.
