Bummer... However, I appreciate that you are giving it a shot!
But you see my point. An out of the box solution like QT would be worth
gold. That's the one thing Microsoft got right. They have awesome
developer tools. Or in the words of Steve Ballmer: "Developers!
Developers! Developers!" :)
Instead of loosing time you could just focus on building some software.
Imagine D would have a kick ass IDE like visual studio but cross
platform like QT. Productivity, efficiency and performance in one. Too
bad D doesn't have the option for paid developers to create something
like this. It's just too much work for your spare time. So, it's
unlikely to happen any time soon :(
Still, I very much appreciate people like Rikki Cattermole who builds a
base to work of for others. The problem is for a few individuals that
just takes a long time to complete.
I would very much appreciate people helping out.
E.g. Contributing manipulation functions, image loader / exporter.
Most importantly unittests. Fix bugs.
I'll most likely do the PNG test case infrastructure, but it would make
things go a few months faster if somebody took ownership of testing in
general.
I'll also be creating a TODO list for what needs to happen with Phobos.
E.g. @nogc version of std.string:indexOf. So plenty of places anybody
can jump in and help :)
