If you add the appropriate versions and copy the files to your project

I've never used a package manager before so the entire process of using
one is still strange to me. When using SDL2 with C, I have all of the
SDL2 files within my MinGW install. To compile I use 'gcc example.c
-lmingw32 -lSDL2 -lSDL2main'. Could I use a method similar to that?
Yeah pretty much the same thing in principle.
Pass the D files to the compiler (including the bindings, dynamic
bindings are not like headers, they load the DLL at runtime not during
linking like static bindings), tell it the versions needed for the
bindings and it should work.
When you do a successful build with the verbose flag it'll tell you what
commands were used to build and link it. That should give you some
pointers of what is required (although there will be extra
flags/versions specified that you probably won't need).
