Runs on Windows (x86), Linux (x86, 86_64), OS X (x86, x86_64) and FreeBSD (x86, x86_64).

The compiler frontend is dual licensed under GPL/Artistic, the backend under a single-user non-redistribution source-available license.

The standard and runtime libraries are Boost licensed.

Sounds good.
Is there an up-todate
"Getting started with "D programming"?
What to download, and where to install it.
Also, is there a Visual GUI IDE?
I have codeBlocks and GCC installed.
Can D use wxWidgets?
Evidently, C++ can use wxWidgets,
but "C" can not. Which is why I am here.

Thanks for your helps...vm

Thanks for the links.
Lots of good info, I am a bit overwhelmed.
I downloaded dinstaller.exe for windows
using this guideline: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kSugYSC5hrE&feature=related
C:\D
Where/how can I tell exactly what is installed?
DMG? GTK? QT?
But I can't figure out how to get it going.
The first thing I would like to do:
1) Run the "hello world" program.
and
2) I want to install a Visual GUI IDE (drag and drop Visual Controls).
Can I get some recommendations on What Visual IDEs people are using?
Am I using the right term  "Visual GUI IDE" ?
Maybe I should start a new Topic for this?
Thanks...Vernon
