One of the best ways to get new programmers a flavour of the language is a playground. Examples: - Kotlin - http://try.kotlinlang.org/ - Haskell - https://tryhaskell.org/ - Go - on the homepage - Ruby - http://tryruby.org/ - Rust - https://play.rust-lang.org/ I know there is a D playground, but I can't remember the URL for the life of me. Is it possible to host or create a CNAME for the current playground at http://try.dlang.org or http://play.dlang.org/ ? It is small things like this that can help newbies "discover" a language and goes a long way in adopting the language.
