As this isn't really a question for Learn I'm not sure if it
fits here. This is more of a "This is how I went about trying
to learn X. These are the problems I encountered. Ideas to
improve?" but I guess I might as well post it here.
Thanks for sharing! Obviously Phobos documentation could and
should be improved, people are working on it but unlike some
other languages there's nobody in D community working full time
on documentation and articles. And D user base is still quite
small, so Stack Overflow is not quite overflown with D-related
answers.
Out of curiosity I looked into "D Cookbook" to check if it
contains your particular case but the only mention of Base64
there is about encoding some data into Base64, not the other
way around.
Well if I post this as a question to SO and link it here, would
you mind answering it? Maybe we should make this a general
scheme: If someone has trouble learning something, just ask the
question directly on SO and have someone answer it there. SO is
way easier to google than this learn forum or the documentation
on dlang. And every single question that gets answered may be
helpful to others trying to do the same :)
