- Rikki Cattermole (4/26) Apr 11 2015 No worries. As you said, its best to dive right in.
Hello World, I am hoping that someone can lend some advice. I am not really a programmer but I studied programming in the late 90s/early 2000 time period. I started with QBasic, then I learned HTML, CSS, JavaScript. I dabbled in C++ using books and tutorials. Anyway, I know enough to learn languages and begin to utilize them appropriately. I haven't studied programming in many years now. But I am interested in web development again. I am no longer interested in Microsoft technologies and Php is not my cup of tea. I've discovered D and I read that it is used on the web. Most notably at Facebook? anyway, I would like to start learning D but I do not know how to use it on the web. What do i need to know/study in order to use D for web development? I read something about cgi and fast-cgi implementation. is this the way to go? remember, i've only used scripting languages before. I don't need a step-by-step answer - i'm not stupid. I just need an arrow pointing in the right direction. thus, if i write a D program and compile it, how do i use it on a web server? please forgive me for not being all-knowing. Thank You very much for your time.

Thank You very much for your time.I'm currently writing a web server[0]. I do have a web service framework waiting for it. It is based upon my previous one (Cmsed). If you want to help with the web server, please let me know. The configuration system still isn't fully flattening (making config files usable) nor is it listening for requests. There also needs work done so it can be demonized on OSX and fast-cgi client and server needs to be written. [0] https://github.com/DNetDev/webserver

[0] https://github.com/DNetDev/webserverI'm always willing to help a community of programmers. If I can help you in anyway, then I will be more than happy to contribute. Keep in mind that I am new to the D Language. I must master the fundamentals of the language before I begin to author code for something as important as a Web Server. However, I will use this project to begin discovering more about D Language. I always believe in learning how to swim by simply D-iving in. I'll look at your project and begin to work on some code. I am obviously inferior to you and your knowledge of D but I will work hard to catch up. By the way, we share the same middle name. Have a Wonderful Day...
