There are a lot of improvements in DlangIDE since last 
announcement.

DlangIDE is a cross-platform IDE for D programming language.

Project link: https://github.com/buggins/dlangide
Release: https://github.com/buggins/dlangide/releases

Windows binaries are available (requires only DMD or LDC to work).

* DUB package as project format
* DUB is used to build and debug projects
* DCD is integrated as a library - provides code completion, go 
to definition and symbol documentation lookup.
* GDB (mago-mi on windows) debugger support

Recent changes:

* Stability fixes
* DCD support fixes
* Better UI look and feel
* UI font setting added
* List of opened files is saved on exit
* Setting to reopen recent workspace on startup
* Opens project or workspace passed as commandline parameter
* UI translations improved
* DUB Subpackages support

Thanks to DlangIDE and DlangUI contributors for PRs and issue 
reports.

Main TODO: better debugging support - variable display. Currently 
it's impossible to see content referenced by pointers, struct or 
class members. It's main stopper from using DlangIDE for everyday 
development.

 From what I've followed, you sure update the project often! 
Perhaps more often than what Phobos is upgraded, by all 
developers combined. Great work.

How to turn on autocomplete? I am starting typing but do not see 
any autocomplete suggestions.

Ctrl+Space

After opening of project, it takes 10-20 seconds for DCD to parse 
and cache phobos/druntime modules so first invocation may be 
delayed.

Can it work without Ctrl+Space ? Just show variants when typing?

That should not take more than 3 secs, there might be an error in 
the way you init DCD.

There are no other themes available.
Although, it's easy to create your own theme.
Instructions can be found here:

https://github.com/buggins/dlangui/wiki/Adding-New-Theme

Built in themes are created based on Eclipse look & feel on 
Windows platform.

But Dark theme is ugly in Eclipse as well :(

BTW, topic should be DlangIDE released, not DlangUI released.

Good work!

I think DlangIde should gain support from D foundation, to become 
a future part of the distribution like DUB. So in the end there 
might be one package (with batteries included :-)) to get started 
with D, with just one download.

My suggestion is to place a special D Foundation donate button 
for several highly useful projects to collect money and attract 
more resources to improve them faster.

I agree with you. I think that community members should choose 
one IDE by voting and donate money to IDE developers. For 
example, we will choose winner in 2017 among existing 
crossplatform solutions (aka IDE of the year). Then we will 
donate to the team for some period. The most wanted feature is a 
refactoring server (IMHO), which can be shared among different 
IDEs.
