I think it's a very big step for D to have a Studio Software.
My idea is to create an editor for D app development.
Wanted features:
   1) Main templates:
       - GUI Application with a 2D/3D scene (this is where I need 
dll reflection)
       - Web Application using Diamond (with a powerful GUI Editor)
   2) Targets:
       - Windows, Linux, MacOS
       - Android, iOS*, WinStore*
       - HTML5 using WebAssembly
   - Vulkan and OpenGLES
   - Maybe multithreaded safe
Some current features:
- Awsome Event Listener for GUI. I am sure you will love it.
- A 3D scene with a camera movement (mouse + WASD keys)
- Node based scene (unique id per node)
- Class managers for Input, Core, Graphics, Audio
- Very productive (It has a lot of static if, static foreach, 
mixin, UDA, __traits ..) - Just D cool stuff.
- It uses OpenGL as it's main graphics library and SDL2 for 
window, keyboard..
- It is very fast because of its architecture, very optimized
Some good statistics: Simple 3D scene with some objects, compiled 
with DMD on Win64 release mode (i7-6700k, 24gb ram + GTX960m = 
600 fps 1080p)
I have a lot ideas for it but the exam session will finish after 
two months, so, unfortunately, I won't be able to work on it 
until then.
After this, I am going to take 4 hours per day to work on it.
My dream is to have the chance to present it at DConf 2020. :)
...
And by the way, I will implement it's website in Diamond MVC.
