There is no other way. You want something, you do it, nobody
else will. It's not so hard to get started:

A few commands and you're there. And don't forget: nobody here
will bite you. Ask questions on "Learn", no matter how "stupid"
or trivial. Read the discussions. Think and learn, which is
what got you here in the first place.
Welcome to D! :-)
I will roll my sleeves as I get more confident and useful. To get
where D is without corporate backing is a huge effort by any
means. And I am sure, a lot of good design decisions have
contributed to this. So thank you for the Welcome and I look
forward to contributing.
