Why aren't all the D compiler and tool developments using it?
I'm convinced a big part of that is because DUB is ubiquitous
and incredibly helpful in the D world for package management,
but plays very poorly with any build system that isn't DUB's
internal one.
While the dub documentation is not always the best, it seems to
me to be in a better state than reggae's. I've heard about reggae
a bit on the forum, but I never really made any attempt to try to
use it. dub seems a lot simpler for small projects.
Maybe Atila could do a blog post with some simple examples and
compare/contrast with dub?
