We've been banging this into shape for roughly 2 years now, so we'll start our engagement at the bottom and work our way up ideally. Hopefully we can provide some PRs and DIPs along the way. :) Video demonstrating where we're at: https://youtu.be/SragDP7S_SU

Yeah, I've been working on it on-and-off for over ten years now. OpenGL is not the only requirement for a GUI and actually not the hardest part. OpenGL is not a requirement for a gui at all, in fact. Drawing stuff is the most trivial part (it always amuses me when people say they have "gui libraries" and it is just a few basic drawing functions). My gui lib allows opengl embedding, probably similar to your copperspice, but it also works without it. Bigger jobs though are the text (which is huge) and all the interactions people expect like drag and drop and just right scrolling and a whole range of things small and big.

It was an effort in running away from Hugo as quickly as possible for ease of maintenance whilst getting things going quickly. It lazily rebuilds a cache DB from hugo-compatible-ish markdown files and processes them for rendering using a simple diet template. It's been running for months now so I'm happy with it. The new infra projects make use of vibe.d+moss-service, for authenticaton+ authorisation management with EdDSA JWTs and such. Very fluid right now as we define the architecture but the plan is to have rolling builds very very soon.
