While the old site wasn't responsive, the design was at least slightly better. It just doesn't look very well done. I'm not trying to be negative or anything, but it looks like someone who just learn html/css in 1999 tried to make the design of the page. Perhaps raising money to pay an experienced web designer would be a good topic for a fundraiser later this year. I think that would be a great idea. I'd tip in with some cash for that. Design is a complicated matter and thankfully I'm mostly back-end developer. But one thing that I see around here is a excess of borders in the layout which may sound dated and for me a visual pollution. For example let's take this Forum (https://forum.dlang.org): Starting with the names: D Programming Language - New users D Programming Language - Community D Programming Language - Ecosystem . . . Why "D Programming Language" + Something? I think it's pretty obvious when someone is here that they are accessing a D Programming Language Forum. Like I said above I think this forums has an excess of borders and I'd prefer something like this: https://i.imgur.com/OQCPojN.png than what you have today, but this is a personal taste. But I asked a friend who design pages for living and he agreed. In fact he said that we should get rid of "Threads, Posts" columns too, or may give a light background color according the Topic (New users, Community etc.). By the way the Forum is my main grip today when using mobile. Matheus.

I just realized DPP would be a perfect candidate for a Dub plugin. Just write the .dpp files, add the dependency to DPP in dub.json and the Dub plugin mechanism (to be implemented) will do all the rest for you. Kind regards Andre

It's now possible to send markdown or HTML to a jupyter
notebook from D:
return markdownResult("# Header");
Simple, but looks pretty.
Thanks Atila for all your great work and projects!
Thanks for the kind words!

The old version was not responsive and was quite annoying to manipulate on small screens." The design is terrible and it really looks unprofessional. I don't know about design, but on my MacBook on a 21:9 widescreen monitor, the font is defaulting to Arial Narrow, giving a very squished look and hard to read.
