My intention with the text is to provide a detailed description of every dub command and configuration directive, along with examples of how to use them in both JSON and SDLang formats.
Yes, this is a good idea. It took me most of a day of trying to wrestle my project into a dub-compatible state and I honestly ended up giving up because my old Makefile is shorter, faster, and much easier to understand. (IIRC, the last straw was realising dub doesn't seem to have a good answer to Make targets, so building my library test samples was... impossible? Or at least completely obtuse.)
I would request that you especially look for common build idioms and how to represent them in dub, because I'm apparently not the only one who thinks it's not obvious.
