Mike's one is more of a learning one. I'll check out Adam's as it seems to be more geared toward learning the advanced stuff of the language, thanks!

Unfortuantely the LinkedIn editor is complete trash and I got to the point any change at all would produce an error; so sadly the article itself is in a very raw and unfinished state. However, there's still plenty of information there to have a look at. [1] https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/d-language-without-compromise-bradley-chatha/?trackingId=ucVY1PBrTNesGvBA6CXp7w%3D%3D

I know my mic audio is pretty bad, but honestly the slides themselves have all the information you need, so you can just read through if you don't want to watch the video itself.

Are there more up-to-date D template tutorials?
Hello, The GitHub repo which helps introduce new users about D templates (https://github.com/PhilippeSigaud/D-templates-tutorial) seems to be quite outdated. As a beginner to D I have been struggling to learn about D templates, I haven't been able to find any up-to-date D template resources so I can learn this concept, which sucks. Is anyone on this forums aware of any up-to-date (preferably 2019+) D template books/resources? I know C++ has many books on this topic, but less so for D. Help would be appreciated.
