We have a really nice script: https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/tools/blob/master/update.sh Basically fetching that script and running it creates a full dmd development rig, soup to nuts. It's a boon for would-be contributors. In addition, it's a really clean and nicely written script that can be easily followed and traced. We should raise awareness of it. Ideas on how to do that?

I'm not sure what the word is... I think it is "compiling" the source code into a form that can be run without a preexisting development environment. I'm not sure it is even possible to run without getting the user to install a VM or something though. I've heard rumors that there's this thing called "native code" and even "static linking", whatever weird black magic that is, but I doubt D supports any of that either. So yeah... seriously just offer a binary download next to the source. Problem solved.
