Can somebody please show a enlightening example of, so called,

I want to use vibe.d to add a modern dynamic web-interface to
my knowledge graph I'm currently developing.
More specifically I would like an interface that makes rich use
of dynamic HTML. When the user changes the contents of a
search/command-line text-field the client logic shall on the
fly (after a certain delay) lookup related information with
vibe.d-server and present the user with relevant hits or
completions in a another part of page (HTML div-block).
Does anybody have a similar vibe.d-project to be inspired from,
in this regard?
I have written a mpd (Music Player Daemon) client in D and just
finished the web app (bar a couple of features).
All of the rendering is done on the client and only json data is
transmitted between server and web app. Just finished the
WebSocket part so if anybody changes the music/volume/playlist,
all clients update the interface.
The code could use a cleanup/refactoring but everything is
working.
The D parts of interest are the MpdApiInterface1 and MpdApi1
classes in source/app.d
For the JS parts you can start with source/index.js, but its full
of ES6 classes and react code. So that might not be your cup of
tea. In index.js there are mainly React Classes (basically html
renderers) and React Container Classes (basically code handling
input changes).
In the source/actions folder there are some js files that call
the server and modify state (volume/song). In the source/stores
folder, some js files that only retrieve data.
The js architecture if influenced by react/flux/facebook's, but I
am toying with it to see what fits for me. Specifically I rely a
lot on RxJS for the observables.
For the project I decided to put js and d files in the same
folders. That might not have been a good idea. Also dub has some
issues with one of the D dependencies that I haven't updated in
months.
