Hi. Does anybody who is familair with D consider to make a 
comprehensive D programming video tutorial / training / course? 
This could be encouraging and helpful for people to start with D. 
It could also help in promoting D programming language. This is a 
question for all the community, please comment what do you think 
about this idea, we will know if there is an interest in such a 
training video, or is it just me.

You're not the first, the other threads asking the same thing can 
be summarized by "Sure, it would be great, but I'm already 
working on this and that so I have neither the time nor the 
competence to do it". If you want it to happen make it happen 
yourself, you might get help once you're started by I've never 
seen anybody saying "Oh, right, that's exactly my thing and I've 
never thought of that, I'll give up my weekends from now on to do 
that".

Didn't know about the other threads. I think that making a video 
tutorial takes much less work than writing a book, and there are 
already a few books on D programming language, but no video 
tutorial. Besides, creator could earn money on the video as well. 
Many people prefer to learn from video tutorial, especially on 
the beginning.

I've hired someone out of my own pocket to work on it, with me 
there to answer questions and review content for correctness.

Slow process though, a lot more work goes into these than you'd 
think...

It's almost two years old now but I found this series of videos

Me and Simen Simen Endsjø were working on it.
But honestly? Videos like this are very very hard to make.

I find book writing much easier.

Hi,

I have written more than 750 tutorials about Java, and made 19 
videos. My experience is, that once I have the written tutorial 
then I also have the TOC for the corresponding video. I can 
usually record a screencast in about 0,5 to 2 hours, and then it 
takes about the same time to put the screencast parts together 
into a coherent video. Someone else can normally do that, though.

I have been thinking about writing about D too. Maybe make a few 
videos. But I don't know... I don't know how big the interest is 
in total.

Well considering documentation is one of Ds biggest criticizers, 
i think a video would be very high in demand. Not that you can 
explain much in a single video but the video is supposed to be a 
tutorial.

But those are ... well suboptimal.

I will probably talk a bit about SDC... when time permits
