Well you don't really need to re-invent the wheel at all with D 
either tbh.

You would need to with vibe.d, because it's really just the 
skeleton of a web application, but with Diamond? Not so much. It 
supports things that other frameworks don't even support, which 
you will end up implementing yourself anyway in 99% of all other 
frameworks. To give an example, consent, privacy and GDPR. There 
is no framework, at least what I have seen, that has compliance 
for such things implemented, but Diamond has it usable straight 
out of the box. Another example would be validation for email, 
url, various credit-cards, files (Not just extension, but also 
whether the data is correct.) etc. most of such validations are 
very limited in other frameworks or non-existent at all.

My point is that, even if those languages has http somewhat 
standard, they do not implement actual features that are useful 
to your business logic, application design etc. only to the 
skeleton.

However with frameworks in D you do get the best of both worlds.
