I wonder what kind of programming people plan or _hope_ to use
D for in 2016?
Do you have plans to:
6. create runtime less programs (games, embedded)?
Am currently knee deep in my first game in D. Using DTiled and
DSFML, has been very fun so far.
A rogue-like nomadic city-builder. (That's a thing?!)
7. work on the D language/phobos ?
I don't have the knowledge or skills sadly. I will attempt to
help out on the documentation at some stage.
What other languages do you think you will use or toy with in
2016 and for what purpose?
Been using Groovy more and more in work.
Will also sadly have to write Java code for some in-house Jenkins
plugins.
Personally, I've been using D a lot more in work recently, and
quick and dirty tools I need I always go to D first.
One example, we use sysstat to monitor all our servers resource
usage, and had no centralised way to view those stats. I wrote a
vibe.d service to do just that, plotting the data via plotly.js.
I might clean it up and put it up on Github actually... could be
useful to someone.
