It seems so strange that there is a vs solution file for dmd, but not for Druntime and phobos? How the heck am I suppose to debug the Druntime in VS then?

VS -> open project or solution -> select exe

If compiled with -g and VisualD installed this should "just work".

@rainers has created a repo that contains project files for druntime and phobos, in addition to dmd:
https://github.com/rainers/dlangvs

The dlangvs repo has the upstream D repos included as git submodules, so if you clone it recursively:

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/rainers/dlangvs.git

It should all work™ (though I haven't tried it, since I haven't used Windows for development in a long time and when I did I was using WSL).

Since the git submodules by definition are locked a particular version, you will need to
update them to the latest one, which could be done like so:

git submodule update --remote

I use this, it works well.
