Sorry, I'm rather ignorant when it comes to this, but why
can't we use
[pegged](https://github.com/PhilippeSigaud/Pegged) to
transpile C++ code to D? Then we won't need a nogc compatible
std library and so many other things could get easier, like
getting legacy code to use Dlang. It might not be worth it for
C+17 and beyond, but older codebases could benefit
significantly, right?
I leave this here, it does converts C++ to D to some extent

Yes I saw the announcement earlier.
I was hoping for something native, rather than bindings.
As you said youself, it's not exactly stable.
Plus I don't want a hamster's death on my conscience. :(
Please don't take this as me belittling your work, it is better
than having nothing.
But how scalable will this be? We have to get real D code to
enrich our ambiguously-defined-small ecosystem.
