2001? According to the changelog Ddoc was added 2005 [1]. I hadn't really started to use D back then and barely programming at all. I would say Javadoc, Doxygen or Markdown, without knowing how standardized they were back then (if they existed).

But most important, Ddoc should not be used for website. I would prefer a template language with a proper server side language. Something like Haml, which allows to use filters where Markdown is one of the filters [2]. Good when writing longer texts. vibe.d's diet templates seems to be a good choice, it's indirectly based on Haml. Not sure if it supports filters though.
