Yes. It's a full translation of the Java code to D. No JNI, JVM or Java 
or remains.

I don't know if that's the case. Also I don't know if that's related to 
Java/JVM. And I don't know how SWT and DWT compares in speed.

There's no GUI builder for DWT, if you're interested in that. In theory 
you could use one for SWT and translate the Java code to D, but that 
might be more troublesome.

DWT works on Windows and Linux. But you don't need to compile it for 
Linux if you don't want to.
