Finally published the article that I had prepared in autumn
last year. It gives an overview of the basic functionality
needed to implement a typical web application using vibe.d. The
example uses Redis as a data store - using other storage
solutions may be a good topic for a follow-up article.

This is nice work. You've done a good job of showing the power of
vibe.d.
Something that comes to mind is that there is a lot of demand for
self-hosted chat servers. Is there a possibility to make this
into an example that works out of the box? By that, I mean
someone could install vibe.d on a DigitalOcean server, type "vibe
chat start" at the command line, and have a running chat service.
That would lead to a lot of vibe.d installs, and then when they
want to change something, they could jump into your tutorial and
see how easy it is to do. To my knowledge, there is nothing like
this available.
