0. Since when did you or company start using D in this area?
I used D for web in 2009 until about 2013 for work, and then changed jobs and didn't get back into using D until this year.
1. Do you use a framework? Which one?
my own web.d
2. Why that approach and what would have done otherwise?
Libraries suck. I avoid them unless they are ubiquitous. Using traditional cgi meant it could go with a well-tested production server.
3. Which task exactly do you use D to accomplish?
everything server-side, json apis as well as html pages/form handling/websockets.
4. Which (dub) packages do you use and for what purpose?
none
5. How do you host your software code (cloud platforms, vps, PaaS, docker, Openshift, kubernetes, etc)?
on a linux server.
6. What are some constraints and problems in using D for such tasks?
Nothing serious. Compile time got a little slow (~14 seconds at one point) but some refactoring improved it.
7. What solutions do you recommend?
keep it simple to get work done.
