I just read it on Wikipedia. An alternative is to use a 
scripting/interpreted language. Working with such approach feels 
unnatural in D (considering pyd, lua-d).


A more sustanable approach would be:

1. Get shared libs to work in D (the best approach for all D code)

1. some kind of embeddable interpreter for a scripting language 
like (a mini js engine) which exposes callable native D APIs at 
runtime

None of which is within my current ability.
