- The vertical alignment of the "D" and "language" are not right.
- For the "Compile and run" button a "Run" button is enough, on the right. It may use the ideone API, but it uses an old D2 compiler...
- The Hello World in D is ugly. It's an unnecessary huge program. People want to see very little programs that do a lot, not very large programs that do nearly nothing. So I suggest to replace it with something much better.
- I suggest to align the line of links that's at the top on the right. And I suggest to replace the large | signs between them with something shorter, like a simple | char.
- I suggest to swap the place of "Getting started" and "Zen of D". Or maybe to swap "Getting started" and the little Run code window.
- I suggest to replace the phrases written in the D zen with a more correct D Zen. D is not Higher level C, and the unfinished implementation for dotnet shows that no all D implementations will be native, and so on.
