February 28, 2018 State of D 2018 Survey | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
About a month ago, Sebastian Wilzbach sent an email out to a few of the core D folks asking for feedback on a survey he had put together. He thought it would be useful for the Foundation to use in order to make decisions about where to expend development efforts. Eventually Andrei gave his stamp of approval, the survey questions were tweaked, and then it was ready to roll. Of course I would love for you to read my blog post announcing it, but if you want to skip the prose and go straight to the good stuff, here's the survey link: https://seb134.typeform.com/to/H1GTak The blog: https://dlang.org/blog/2018/02/28/the-state-of-d-2018-survey/ Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/d_language/comments/80w29n/the_state_of_d_2018_survey/ |

The survery incorrectly uses the term @nothrow instead of nothrow for question 12e.

And 12j misspelled "anything."

I wonder whether or not I should ask my (non-dlang) colleagues to take this survey as well.

If you ask about tabs vs spaces but not Emacs vs vi, nobody will take the language seriously. And why are there no questions about beards?

A few comments
1) How about an N/A or does not apply option?
2) The progress bar was weird, I went from 80% done to 57% done at one point.

I think posting it to /r/programming might give it more views. I had no idea /r/d_language even existed.

The target audience for this isn't that broad, which is why I didn't share it on /r/programming.

You can simply skip the questions. All questions are optional. > 2) The progress bar was weird, I went from 80% done to 57% done at one point. Yeah that's a Typeform bug. It's due to their logic jumps. I have reported this to their support a while ago already. The problem is that depending on what you answer you "jump" through the survey and see only the relevant questions (e.g. If you state that you have tried the DTour, you will be asked no further questions about it). I think the way the implemented this is that the only insert questions until the next logic jump + the permanent ones at the end, hence the jumps ... |

I thought one "fun" question is enough. Maybe next year we get more creative ;-)
