- 2023 Summer of Nix program goals
- Effort to update documentation: Documentation Team Discussion
- Ground Zero: check out issues on GitHub page of

. Some issues act as discussion starters.
A simpler way would be to keep an eye on the "Developer Category" in the forum.
Yeah, C# and Rust, in their own ways, pretty much covered what D lang set out to do.
reference compiler closed source
Is it still closed source? What is the reason?!
Edge is stuff tacked on Chromium. How can it be better?!
