I'm going to do a writeup on the state of D in Web Development,
APIs and Services for 2017. I need the perspective of the
community too along with my personal experience. Please help
out. More details the better.
0. Since when did you or company start using D in this area?
1. Do you use a framework? Which one?
2. Why that approach and what would have done otherwise?
3. Which task exactly do you use D to accomplish?
4. Which (dub) packages do you use and for what purpose?
5. How do you host your software code (cloud platforms, vps,
PaaS, docker, Openshift, kubernetes, etc)?
6. What are some constraints and problems in using D for such
tasks?
7. What solutions do you recommend?
0. Since over a year ago, I mostly do freelancing with it, so
just me really.
1. Diamond -- https://github.com/diamondmvc/diamond
2. Would have done nothing different.
3. Every project I do using D, I pretty much use D only, so all
tasks necessary; big or small.
4. mysql-native, vibe.d and diamond.
5. I don't host any projects myself.
6. None so far, except for webservices like SOAP. (Although I'm
planning on implementing that for Diamond -- Don't know when
however.)
7. Depends on the task.
