In theory nothing stops you from doing that. In practice
however you have to deal with C++ anyway, how API matches ABI,
and many more low level underlying things. You also need to
know how your OS works.
Don't forget that you have to know the tools as well, dealing
with Android means you will have to do cross-compilation. Must
know how to use compilers, linkers and debuggers, and shell
scripts as well as bonus.
Oh and don't forget that you have to make bindings to
interface these 2 domains, and that requires knowledge of both
D and C++.
So if you're too brave yet go ahead and try.
There was some Qt attempts such as this one
https://code.dlang.org/packages/qte5
But since the last release was in 2016 it is probably no
longer compiles, and I have no idea if it supports Android.
I agree. I think ABI compliance is an easy step but one will
have to take care to memory managment, that's the big thing OMO,
