D is an extremely powerful language, but when I read complaints and
sighs about other languages, few seem to know that these problems are
solved with D. Essentially, we have a marketing problem.
One great way to address it is by writing articles about various
aspects of D and how they solve problems, like
http://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/cb14j/compiletime_function_execution_in_d/
which was well received on reddit.
Anyone have good ideas on topics for D articles? And anyone want to
stand up and write an article?
They don't have to be comprehensive articles (though of course those
are better), even blog entries will do.
I will write a blog article how I used D to write an extension DLL for
the Rebol-3 language. I used the C stuff and ported it over in a couple
of hours.
Being now able to use D on the compile side give totally new possibilities.
On the other hand those articles should focus on those complaints and
sighs topics from other languages and show how elegant D can solve it.
To keep the link.
