So true. I've written code before only to learn later that there was already a library for what I was doing that I just happened to stumble upon. Which would have saved me a lot of time.

+[something]
If the DIP is too complex or big, it will be getting a no from me.
I just don't see any of those extra syntaxes being discussed as useful.

Perfect time to learn.
Its a very useful skill to have, even if you don't use it every day.

Nice, thanks! I don't like having to hunt for, and sometimes not find, the license of a library to see if it is permissive or not. GC is nice too.

As far as I understand, the D Language Foundation itself can work on specific
projects by the help of scholarship recipients paid by donations.
For me I see 3 ways to get enhancement / issues solved:
- Work on my spare time on the issue
- Motivate others to work in their spare time on the issue :)
- Donate to the D Language Foundation
Dub / Dub repository are already great products but in my opinion there
is still a lot of work to do.
Kind regards
André

That actually already landed in September. https://github.com/dlang/dub-registry/pull/224 Try http://code.dlang.org/?showrating What's left now that search results are sorted by relevance, is more indexing so that we really find most packages for a search term. https://github.com/dlang/dub-registry/pull/193 |
