digitalmars.D.announce - dqml for Ubuntu Unity apps

I can't seem to wrap my head around using dqml and D backend for 
Ubuntu Unity app development. They have this UnityComponents qml 
module they use for UI in their SDK plus a C++ backend.

Has anyone made effort on using dqml and D backend? Sample code 
or any help will be sweet!! I really dislike C++, And Canonical's 
C++ coding style and naming convention makes it worst.

Sorry the forum is a little bit confusing. Too late until I 
realised I posted in the wrong place and I can't find a way to 
fix it.!Responsive WD.

I don't have any experience using dqml with Unity Apps but I can 
certainly get you in touch with the right people to help you make 
sense of the c++ code so that you may better apply that with 
dqml. Is that something you'd be interested in? Anything specific 
that I can communicate to those developers that you currently 
have questions on?

Feel free to reply here or email me directly

They use their c++ backend to hookup to qml, configure bluetooth, 
network and stuff. I wanted to figure out how to transfer their 
UbuntuComponent qml module to dqml or rather use D in place of 
the C++ in a generated project from their SDK.

However, I have no idea how to even start. I was hopping anyone 
had a sample code somewhere I could use as reference. This 
requires a D programmer who is into Ubuntu and their unity 8 
stack I guess.

Yeah, I get it somehow now, Ubuntu UI Toolkit has APIs for Go, 
C++, and JavaScript. Either they build a D API or we make 
bindings to the C++ API.
