February 07, 2019 NEW Milestone: 1500 packages at code.dlang.org | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
Hi all, I am very happy to be the first to announce this here: 1500 D packages available via DUB at code.dlang.org ! Now as the pure volume of solutions gets more and more impressive, we have to find better ways to enhance quality and stability. The "Score" indicator is a very good step. A field, probably at first just manually set by the owner, giving latest tested dmd version might give a good way to filter for well maintained packages. My second wish is to start a general effort to adopt several packages by D Foundation to ensure they keep updated. So a big "Thank You", to all the great people building D and its ecosystem! |

Good news indeed. I remember when dub had very few packages...now things are really getting better.

What was the word on the autotester (or similar) testing popular packages as part of the test suite? |

This is been done since more than a year now for the ~50 most popular packages: https://buildkite.com/dlang In my opinion this is one of the main reasons why the last releases were so successful (=almost no regressions). |

That's awesome. This is the way to go. Congrats to everyone who helped pull this off. T -- Freedom of speech: the whole world has no right *not* to hear my spouting off! |

Agreed! This is a really nice bit of work that's come out of the D ecosystem.
