Currently supported platforms are Windows, using Win32 and Linux, using GTK. What are the tools and step involved in converting a java GUI toolkit to D2? Is it possible in D2? What are the tools and steps involved? Is there any tutorial involve? Can one get a mentor for such a program in the forum DWT is ported manually from Java. Here's a very short guide [1]. That guide is probably written for D1. I am thinking if it is possible to port JavaFX to D(i.e. DFx). That will be nice for the D language. Javafx is a nice GUI toolkit. I am basically interested in GUI desktop app that connects to the web for the now. I can do that on Java but I would love to use D if it is possible. I will be happy to be linked to material, tools, and tutorial that will be of help I'm working on a tool do be able to automatically convert Java code to D code [2].
