D Web Development
By :

Today's World Wide Web is shaped by sites, such as Facebook and Amazon, that handle millions of users. The vibe.d framework is designed to create fast and scalable web applications. A significant difference from other frameworks is the use of the D programming language.
In this chapter, you will learn the following:
The D programming language is a general purpose programming language that offers modern convenience, modeling power, and native efficiency with a familiar C-style syntax. If you are new to D, then you should visit http://dlang.org/. This site contains the language definition, references to the standard libraries, downloads for the D compiler, and a lot of other tools.
If you have any questions about D, then visit the web forum at http://forum.dlang.org/.
To develop an application in D, all you need is your favorite text editor and the D compiler. The vibe.d framework is used for web applications. You can find information about vibe.d and the programming documentation at http://vibed.org/. For any questions about vibe.d, you can use the web forum at http://forum.rejectedsoftware.com/groups/rejectedsoftware.vibed/.
The vibe.d framework has some external dependencies, too. It requires the event notification library libevent and the OpenSSL libraries. If you need more information about these libraries, then please visit http://libevent.org/ and https://openssl.org/.
The following section describes how to install the D compiler, package manager DUB, and dependencies on your operating system.
