It seems that by using gtkd project to build your GUI application it requires a preinstalled runtime that weights around 40mb, for Windows operating systems. (https://gtkd.org/download.html)

A Dlang UI GUI project by Buggins seems to be deprecated and even a simple example could not be run anymore. (https://github.com/buggins/dlangui)

I'm not aware of any other serious project that could efficiently provide a way to build a stable GUI.

What should I do if I want to write a cross-platform application with graphical user interface in D? Should I wait until there will be better maintained libraries listed on the (https://wiki.dlang.org/GUI_Libraries) or there are other ways to create and build a GUI D language application?

I think you should work with gtkd, because it best alternative at this time.

What are the signs that it would be deprecated? The maintainer has not been active on GitHub for a few months, it happens. There are several open pull requests that may help you. Maybe this one? https://github.com/buggins/dlangui/pull/601

Check out tkd, https://github.com/nomad-software/tkd, for something akin to Tkinter.

vibe.d + vue.js works perfectly

We're just waiting for a hero to make that happen. DLangUI is the most promising pure D GUI but being based on a single individual's effort doesn't help get it there yet.

It also tried to do too much instead of a modern and simple approach...more modular and customisable to enable others to build atop.

Some here said they, as in their company/startup, were working on a D GUI project but that hasn't happened yet.

There's independent efforts here and there but none has really gotten there... enough for building a compelling cross-platform product

You are probably referring to https://forum.dlang.org/post/qbsg7d$11s3$1@digitalmars.com

Is he going to write a whole GUI framework from scratch? like Qt?
