Well, that depends entirely on how you use D, and how you use 
Emacs. :)

For this, you probably want the flycheck-dmd-dub package:

company-dcd actually uses flycheck-dmd-dub to query Dub import 
paths and pass them on to DCD, so it should work (though perhaps 
something needs to be turned on or otherwise configured first).

For indentation, you can use cc-mode's facilities, which are 
supported in d-mode via indent-region.

For full-on formatting, Per Nordlöw wrote a dfmt package 
(wrapping the titular tool). A copy can be found here:
