Hello,

What annoys me the most about D is the tooling, specially the lack of solid IDE support, i understand it's very hard to do, so i don't complain much about it, instead i try to contribute as much as i can

So last week i decided it was time to attempt something, so the past week i have been working on adding proper support for templates in DCD

It's been quite difficult, as expected, but i have been able to come up with a decent PR!

So far it's working nicely in my huge project, but i do not use templates a lot, only for containers

So if you have a big project and consume a lot of templates, please give my PR a try and let me know what works, what doesn't and what could be improved!

If you can, i'd love to get a code review too, that would be helpful!

Here is the PR: https://github.com/dlang-community/DCD/pull/714

PS: If you use the vscode extension, you'll need to change the version here:

https://github.com/dlang-community/DCD/blob/master/common/src/dcd/common/dcd_version.d#L29

Replace it with "v9.9.9", so serve-d won't complain about the version

Works with auto :)

Whoa, I didn't even know about DCD. I spend half my life in sublime text, so this is perfect for me! I'll give it a shot, hopefully the DKit still works with Sublime text 4.

Thanks very much for the effort!

I don't know about DKit, but there is serve-d you can use with Sublime Text https://github.com/Pure-D/serve-d/

It's the language server (LSP), it uses DCD as the engine
