Yeah, I did that, thanks. It's just that "nightly" or "beta" usually means "unstable".
Surely this project hasn't been in an unstable state for two years.
Also, newcomers to D who are looking for an IDE will probably have a look at the release date and assume that the extension is dead - or worse, the language.
So, as Steven wrote: A new release would be nice. :)
I'm one of those guys who just came to D and its syntax is very clear to me. I'm moving to a different level of programming from desktop applications to microservices and web applications, so the question arose of choosing another language other than C++, but still compiled. It took me a week to realize how simple Go is, but it lacks classes, templates, and itching to put parentheses where they are not needed. That's why I would like everything in D to be out of the box like in Go with good editor support. Just an outside perspective for the sake of promoting the language!
