digitalmars.D - D needs a well-done developer course on Udemy/Coursera

Am just having a look at all those developer courses on Udemy to 
learn Go or Rust. The offering there is actually quite amazing. 
Makes me think that it would be very beneficial for the further 
spread of D that also for D a well-done developer course were 
available on a learning platform such as Udemy or Coursera.

I don't think I will ever do any development at work with Rust 
and probably also not at home, but I would nevertheless like to 
take the Rust course on Udemy, for example. The courses cost very 
little money anyway. My company has a company account on Udemy an 
I would not have to pay anything anyway. Taking the course would 
be for sure quite interesting and be a fun learning experience 
whether I were totally convinced about Rust or not.

In that way I believe many people would take a D course just out 
of general interest and afterwards might be hooked.

Right. Although D will never be able to compete with the number 
of available Go and Rust courses, I'd really wish the Ali's book 
based course on educative.io would be available on Udemy at 
least. I've never heard of educative.io and learnt about it only 
from the corresponding D forum post ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

That'll be nice.

There's a collection of D videos on YouTube in these playlists if 
anyone is interested.

collection)

Will probably do another with coding videos specifically. D 
videos are mostly scattered all around. And there's this D 
YouTube tutorial gang kind of thing building up 😉️
