All this work was done by kntroh and Jesse Phillips, thank you 
very much.


This is wonderful news.

The tip could probably use a rewrite in editing, but I'm out of 
time again tonight and I hope I got the point across anyway. As 
someone who really likes distributing single-file libraries 
when possible, the lazy import has given me some cool interop 
things without compromising my preferred distribution strategy.


I think producing this news bulletin is the single best thing you 
guys have done recently for the D programming language.  It makes 
it easy for someone like myself that is still learning the 
language (4 years now) and is wanting to know more about what is 
happening but don't know where to start.  Unfortunately I don't 
use D in my job daily so it's nice to get a new feed with the 
highlights on what is happening.  Anyway I just wanted to let you 
know that I appreciate all your hard work on this Adam and you 
definitely have a fan.  I am looking forward to reading next 
weeks post.

Hello,

I'm working on cross-platform D language IDE - DlangIDE.
It's written in D using DlangUI based GUI.

Project on GitHub: https://github.com/buggins/dlangide

It's in alpha stage but already allows:

* Open DUB based projects
* Edit source files
* Build and run projects using DUB
* D source code syntax highlight

Requires DUB for building projects.

Features missing so far:

* Debugging support
* Code completion
* Code folding
* Go to definition
* Smart indentation

Best regards,
   Vadim


Is DUB required to install and use the IDE?

DUB is required to build IDE, and to build and run projects 
using

IDE.


Thanks for the reply. Is the IDE ever going to be a full install 
package that can be deployed like the compiler (ie.. Windows 
setup, Linux package, or Mac install)?  IMHO dub is too 
confusing, very proprietary and is not user friendly at all for 
people that are new to the language.  An IDE with a nice install 
package for the OS your using would put it on par with every 
other language out there and make it seem more like a 
professional language system.
