I was checking the 2017 vision pages and was wondering why
there hasn't been a 2018H1 vision page but also what the
current status of being able to use D without a garbage
collector is?
There are a number of ways to use D without the garbage
collector. However, one of the easiest is with the -betterC
flag. You'll want to read the two blog articles here
(https://dlang.org/blog/category/betterc/) for more information
about that.
2.079, the upcoming release will also have a way to use D without
the runtime and without -betterC. What this allows you to do is
partially implement just the runtime features you wish to
support. You can read more about it in the nightly changelog
here (https://dlang.org/changelog/pending.html#minimal_runtime)
