About D

D was created in 1999 by Walter Bright and later joined by Andrei Alexandrescu. It was developed to address shortcomings in C++ by offering a more modern and safer alternative while retaining the performance characteristics of C++. The language aimed to improve developer productivity with features like garbage collection, contract programming, and modern concurrency mechanisms.

D's strengths include high performance, modern features, safety mechanisms, and ease of use. Weaknesses involve a smaller community, less library support compared to more established languages, and occasional issues with tooling. Competitors of D include C++, Rust, and Go.
