I was using Jinja2 to generate some files and I wished I had D
ranges. So I made a toy proof-of-concept of a D answer to
Jinja2. Then a COVID-19 outbreak here triggered a lockdown, and
I polished it up a bit more:

As it stands, the -betterC flag is still immature and only
removes a bit of the D runtime. I've been playing around a bit
to see what could be possible. To do that, I've had to do some
linker hacking to make code that's completely free of D runtime
dependencies.

From there:
Well, you can get the usual (“strong”) purity guarantee just
by making all pointer or reference type
D's implementation of functional purity supports "weak" purity -
functions that can mutate arguments but are otherwise
traditionally pure.
I wrote a post about some of the practical benefits of this kind
of purity:
