tl;dr Derek Banas is a YouTuber that makes long-form programming tutorials. He has almost one million subscribers. He just posted a 90-minute tutorial that covers D beginning to end. This could be great promotional for this community to share with people learning D! — Back when I was learning D, I learned from every resource I could find: I read the canonical Programming in D e-book by Ali Çehreli, The D Programming Language by Andrei Alexandrescu, and even some of Adam D. Ruppe’s D Cookbook. Still, this wasn’t enough at the time, so I also read through most of this website’s docs and joined the IRC channel to bug people as much as they’d let me. It was about that time that I checked Derek Banas’s YouTube channel to find a tutorial covering D. Derek Banas is well known for creating long-form programming videos (usually an hour or more) that cover the most essential aspects of major programming languages in a fast but accessible format. He didn’t have a video at the time, so I kindly left a comment and forgot about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lzeE8py1LGI&lc=Ugh2w7hQ82S2UngCoAEC (see highlighted comment). Well, I’m excited to share that Derek Banas has just posted a lengthy D tutorial (90 minutes) on his YouTube channel. I have no idea if I actually had any influence or not (probably not), but I’m excited nonetheless that this community has one more qualitative resource for beginners to learn D. D taught me a lot, including some of the more advanced concepts available to programming languages, and I’m really excited that now it’ll be easier for more people can learn these concepts, too. |

This is much cooler than I thought and very accessible. Very cool. -- Robert M. Münch http://www.saphirion.com smarter | better | faster |

It's a good thing that D is becoming more public (I hope.)
However there were a few mistakes in the explanation of mixins.

You should point it out in the comment section, Derek is pretty quick receiving feedbacks.
