When you get started with it, don't hesitate to ask me about stuff! Thank you! I need a little help (maybe an example) on dll reflection. I can't figure it out how to do it. I need to instantiate new "Unknown" objects from dll, without closing the app and recompiling it. I think it's a very big step for D to have a Studio Software. My idea is to create an editor for D app development. Wanted features: 1) Main templates: - GUI Application with a 2D/3D scene (this is where I need dll reflection) - Web Application using Diamond (with a powerful GUI Editor) 2) Targets: - Windows, Linux, MacOS - Android, iOS*, WinStore* - HTML5 using WebAssembly - Vulkan and OpenGLES - Maybe multithreaded safe Some current features: - Awsome Event Listener for GUI. I am sure you will love it. - A 3D scene with a camera movement (mouse + WASD keys) - Node based scene (unique id per node) - Class managers for Input, Core, Graphics, Audio - Very productive (It has a lot of static if, static foreach, mixin, UDA, __traits ..) - Just D cool stuff. - It uses OpenGL as it's main graphics library and SDL2 for window, keyboard.. - It is very fast because of its architecture, very optimized Some good statistics: Simple 3D scene with some objects, compiled with DMD on Win64 release mode (i7-6700k, 24gb ram + GTX960m = 600 fps 1080p) I have a lot ideas for it but the exam session will finish after two months, so, unfortunately, I won't be able to work on it until then. After this, I am going to take 4 hours per day to work on it. My dream is to have the chance to present it at DConf 2020. :) ... And by the way, I will implement it's website in Diamond MVC.

I think it even reads better, but apparently some people don't. Let me know? The operator overloads are completely optional. Atila Personally, I don't like that kind of "abuse" of operators at all. I think it looks really unusual and it kind of breaks your "flow" when reading the code. Additionally, people, who don't know about the special behaviour the operators have in this case, might get really confused. I would much prefer it, if you used a more common fluent style (like 1.0.should.be.approximately(1.0001);). Anyways, thanks for working on this awesome project!
