How about a GUI library. Probably helping with an already existing one,
DWT for example.
Good idea, but rather improve GtkD or QtD.
Too bad that's the general opinion people seem to have about GUI libraries.
I don't understand what they don't like about DWT.
BTW, I received a patch for DWT which makes it work with D2.
Coming from the Java world, I'm a big fan of SWT because it's fast and
native, and I started out using DWT, but I was frightened away when I
realized that DWT contains a reimplementation of a significant portion
of the Java standard library. It just seems like a decent UI framework
for D shouldn't require another language's standard library to be
ported over, but maybe I'm just critical.
Where would I find DWT for D2?
If the DWT code is as close as possible to the original SWT it's easier
to merge future versions of SWT.
DWT for D2 is currently not finished.
