Does D have a mature SFML or SDL binding?

Are available.
I have personally used the SDL2 bindings on both Windows and
Mac and they work perfectly so far. Just download the library
bindings from libsdl.org and go! For both SFML2 and SDL2, it
uses the C interface, so the tutorials using C are the ones
you'll want to pay attention to.
In addition, there's GFM: http://code.dlang.org/packages/gfm
It wraps SDL2 in a bit of a nicer interface (I had trouble
using gfm as a dependency since ~master references gfm:bgfx
which doesn't exist in the dub registry yet ... but gfm:sdl2
works when used as the dependency, however, it's somewhat new
and incomplete ... could use some contributions, I think)
Ahem, looks like I commited something too early. This is a bug.
In the mean time you can use the "==1.1.1" version.
What are you missing in gfm:sdl2? Please report :)
I recognize for now using the wrapper brings marginal utility.
