Hi there,
i'm all new to D but not new to programming in general.
I'd like to try D but i didn't find a nice tutorial yet.
I don't want to read a whole book, I just want to get the basics so I can start.
Can you help me find something like that?

Best regards, Julius

I say get the book.  The D Programming Language is a great book.  If you are a university student you'll probably be able to read it for free.  I finally got my hard-copy, and it's great.

What languages do you know already? If it's one of C++, C#, or Java, you might just be able to jump right in, and just reference the website every now and then for specifics.
