Is "Diet template" a D/Vibe unique language? I can't find anything to
contradict that view, but just wanted to sure. Every time I try and look
it up on google, it takes me to weight loss stuff :)   Good name though.


Yes, it started out as vibe.d exclusive (now it's properly decoupled 
from it). For Google it's probably not popular enough, atm, but I've 
registered diet-lang.org, which should help a lot once it gets filled 
with content.

Any way we could generate revenue with the (real) D-Man? I 
don't know, if it existed independently of DLang, or if it's in

to make some money for the D Foundation.


@Chris you should get in touch with the nice guys from 
Sociomantic (e.g.
Dylan Cromwell (https://github.com/dylan-cromwell-sociomantic) 
and Leandro Lucarella 
(https://github.com/leandro-lucarella-sociomantic)). They are 
working on helping the D Foundation to setup a D Store with swag

Vibe.d still contains the original implementation, which was written
around the limitations of DMD's CTFE engine back years ago, and is
basically a monolithic parser+generator with little flexibility and a
number of convenience features missing, because of their
implementation complexity. The new implementation has been rewritten
cleanly, with separate parser, modifier and generator modules, working
on a common DOM tree intermediate representation.

The major new features/improvements are:

  - No external dependencies other than Phobos
  - Supports inline and nested tags syntax
  - Supports string interpolations within filter nodes (falls back to
runtime filters)
  - Supports AngularJS special attribute names
  - Extensible/configurable with traits structures
  - Uses less memory during compilation (this one was a real surprise)
  - (Unit) tested from the start
  - Supports arbitrary uses other than generating HTML, for example we
   use it similar to QML/XAML for our internal UI framework

The API documentation can be shown ba running DUB:
   dub fetch diet-ng --version=1.0.0-alpha.2
   dub run diet-ng -b ddox

You can try the library directly, or together with the latest alpha
release of vibe.d (0.7.30-alpha.3). Simply add a dependency to
"diet-ng", version "~>1.0.0-alpha.2". Vibe.d will automatically
re-route render!(...) calls to diet-ng.

A small example with just the most essential features is shown in the
README:
https://code.dlang.org/packages/diet-ng

More complex real-world examples:
https://github.com/rejectedsoftware/vibed.org/tree/master/views
https://github.com/rejectedsoftware/ddox/tree/master/views

Any comments/requests regarding the feature set or API are highly
welcome!


Great stuff! Very much appreciated. Btw, the link to jade-lang.org
(don't click!) leads to a dodgy business homepage atm. The right address is

Oh, dang! Thanks for mentioning this. Fortunately I copy/pasted the 
right link to the README.

I decided against putting it into vibe.d and instead re-implemented it
