Re: New DUB documentation

Also it's a good idea to maintain the same style as dlang forum 
and dlang website, along with dlang tour and online dlang editor. 
The dlang webdesign choice feels really solid and robust. At 
least from my perspective.


If someone needed a dark theme dub documentation. A simple button 
to toggle it would have been enough.


Small tweaks for layout and small tweaks overall for more 
professional look and efficiency of use. Would have been enough.

The new DUB documentation feels less efficient for use. First 
impression: headache.


If the content is improved and refined, then yeah that's 
welcoming, a good thing and well done.


But overall use, it just feels like trying to be modern without 
being clever and usable.


I think the previous design was better, more user-friendly, even 
if looked worse.


Darker blending indistinct colors (dark red, dark background), 
way smaller fonts.

Gray headers on gray background.

The link colors are giving headaches too. But that might be only 
for me right now.

The Matrix space is accessible via 
[#dlang:m.wfr.moe](https://matrix.to/#/#dlang:m.wfr.moe) or if 
your Matrix client does not yet support the spaces feature you 
can join the individual rooms by browsing the `m.wfr.moe` Room 
Directory.


The bridge is now also self-hosted and limited to just the D 
discord, so it's a lot quicker than the previous solution, 
although the previous solution is still in place for the 
existing channels and will be migrated later.

why are you guys using matrix over discord?


Discord is getting more and more monetized and is completely 
closed source.
Matrix is not really that great, but it's better than a Discord 
if you are looking for
something more futureproof. Personally all the times I tried 
Matrix, I didn't like the
frontend web clients. They do feel incomplete and inconvenient. 
However now I just
stumbled upon this client and maybe it looks somewhat promising

This is a repository + dub package which tracks 
core.sys.windows, and makes the declarations within available 
to all platforms. This is useful if you need to write 
cross-platform applications which e.g. read/write BMP or PE 
files.


More details in the README:

Someone should test this and make a quick tutorial by putting 
this in practice. Really awesome, Vlad.
