It&amp;#x27;s been such a pleasure to use.. scope guards, string mixin, inline json &amp;amp; std.json.  It&amp;#x27;s been so useful for the code I write at work. Much love for D&lt;p&gt;The one thing I would add to this list is &lt;i&gt;documentation&lt;/i&gt;!  There is a lot of good documentation available, but not for everything you would expect.  For example, I had a hard time figuring out the behavior of sub-packages within a dub package.  Some more explicit documentation on this subject would have been appreciated.</text></comment>

I&amp;#x27;m glad they&amp;#x27;re working more on c++ interoperability. I&amp;#x27;ve ported some c++ code to D before, it wasn&amp;#x27;t not too bad, it wasn&amp;#x27;t a lot of code, but it would be great to be able to work directly with c++ libraries in D similarly to C libraries.&lt;p&gt;It always makes me sad D hasn&amp;#x27;t picked up more. Usually comments I see about D seem pretty ambivalent to dismissive. It&amp;#x27;s a great language and to me has always felt like the way C++ should have been.&lt;p&gt;It does seem to be growing in popularity. Even in the years I&amp;#x27;ve been using it, the number of libraries and community resources has expanded exponentially and every day new code is being added to&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;code.dlang.org&amp;#x2F;&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;code.dlang.org&amp;#x2F;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;Not to mention dub is probably the most simple straightforward build system I&amp;#x27;ve worked with.</text></comment>
