Good night, did you want to know this? Is the DE language cross-platform or cross-compile like C ++?

GDC and LDC has multi-platform support, I'm currently working on an ARM backend for DMD.

so does it mean that if I develop a program using the D language in BSD creating generic resources for example and compiling on windows, linux and darwin it would work fine?

Each platform has its own unique behavior and related code.
Gotta try it to know for certain.

But that is unrelated to D in the most part :)

but in any case then the D language can be considered multiplatform?

It's a compiled language, it'll behave like c++.

Yes, and it even has language features related to multiplatform ddevelopment, eg. conditional compiling.
