Does Anyone Code in D?


I recently stumbled across the programming language 'D' which seems to be an evolution of 'C'.

As the title asks, does anyone code in D, and if so, why do you use it over C (or any other language) ?

No, I do not but I wish :)

I got interested in D a few years ago and purchased quite a good introductory book about it, written by the author of the language (https://www.bookdepository.com/The-D-Programming-Language-An...).

Overall it really seems a lovely language and - to me - what C++ should have actually been and - to a certain degree - almost as if it was a love child of C and Java :).

Unfortunately it is quite a niche and I never came around to actually use it, be it professionally or on my own. Still, I'd love if I once had the opportunity to use it.
