What's the state of D support for Android , iOS and Windows RT? Wouldn't it be awesome if we were able to write mobile applications cross-platform in a single language?

D is more or less working on iOS [1]:

"Experimental iOS/arm64 support - all druntime/Phobos unittests pass, thanks Jacob! The prebuilt macOS package supports cross-compilation out of the box, just add `-mtriple=arm64-apple-ios12.0` (ldc2/ldmd2) or `--arch=arm64-apple-ios12.0` (dub)"

My "dream" here is to have s.th. like autowrap (https://code.dlang.org/packages/autowrap) for the Delphi / Lazarus language. Then we are able to click together the IOS/Android UI in Delphi Rad Studio and seamlessly calling D classes (without writing any wrapper code).

Kind regards
