Yeah, and that's an industry-standard production deployment.
But perhaps we should just change the server line for the
people who do look at it. No need to change the deployment,
just the apache/nginx config to spit out something different.
I can picture the article now:
The D programming language maintains its own web framework
called vibe.d, but the official website dlang.org doesn't use
it. Instead they use the Apache framework written in C. They
also decided to modify Apache to make it look like their own
vibe.d framework. Apparently tricking people into thinking
they use their own code was easier the actually using it.
A lot of languages have a web framework that sits behind a server
written in a different language. .NET powers a ton of sites and
applications and usually runs on IIS which is written in C++.
Also if I were to use vibe then I would prolly run it behind a
reverse proxy like nginx. This is actually pretty standard way
of deploying apps like say a Django, Flask, etc.... Nothing wrong
with that and that by no means makes Python a useless language
for the web. Even Digital Oceans guide for Node and Python apps
have you setup nginx as a reverse proxy. Also Plays uguide shows
how to setup nginx as a proxy.
