The D Programming Language has been said to be "what C++ wanted to be," which is a better C. D is developed with system level programming in mind, but brings to the table modern language design with a simple C-like syntax. For these reasons D makes for a good language choice for both performance code and application development.

D is rapidly reaching a stable specification and implementation.

"The D Programming Language" by Andrei Alexandrescu is available on Amazon and other locations.

Hello World

import std.stdio;

void main()
{
    writeln("Hello, world!");
}
