Like most C-family languages, D is a freeform language[1]. Funnily enough, I don't think this is explicitly stated in the D spec (at least not that I could find). It's just assumed, because D is an evolution of C, C++, and Java primarily, all of which are freeform languages.
There are a couple places where whitespace is significant in D, but for the most part, you can write your code in whatever way you want as long as it's syntactically valid according to the D grammar.
