My point of view, however, was that of a newbie. As such I won't
make my learning curve steeper by learning two "standard
libraries", which one to use when, etc.
There is just a single standard library. I don't know how many times I
have to say this: "Tango is just another third party library".
And as long as you don't compile DStep yourself you don't even have to
know it uses Tango.
- why tango? What's better there than in phobos?
In my opinion:
* Argument parsing
* XML package
* Net package (not any external dependencies)
* Zip package
* I think it has more collections
* Logging
- what's the offering? (Is it a complete replacement for phobos?)
Yes, but you can use just what you want. As I said, I'm only using the
argument parsing from Tango.
