I though Laeeth had a good suggestion on how to market D a
couple months ago, as the current front-page pitch may be too
general for some chunk of readers:
"A set of 'channels' for different use cases might be helpful.
Eg bioinformatics, numerical computing, web, etc. Both for
tutorials and setting out the advantages."
I'd organize it by adding a usage page to dlang.org with a list
of popular channels like that, with a paragraph of info for
each and links to the wiki with more info about use in that
field. The usage page would have some links from the front page
pitch.
As such, we need to collect info on how you all are using D
now. If you are using D in some field like that, please
describe what you're doing and we'll add it to the website.
Do you have a sample page where we can see the layout of your
vision. It's hard write content without knowing how it's going
to be used.
+1 on the idea.
