XAML is a descriptive markup language and has nothing to do with 
WinForms. Of course, you can host a WPF user control in a 
WinForms ElementHost but that's all.

The closest thing to WPF that you can use in D is QML/QtD.

And Microsoft is promoting C++/XAML for Windows Store 
Applications, you cannot write desktop applications using WinRT. 
You're stuck in the desktop world to classic WinAPI/C++ 
development or WPF/any .NET language.
