For me at least, D has a lot more to offer because with the 
recent developments in vibe.d, it's the only language that offers 
the opportunity to write portable Web applications in the true 
sense, ie. The user interface being in a browser, the backend 
being a natively compiled service in the computer. With a 2 
megabytes packed PE that is. It may not seem useful, but to me 
it's revolutionary. Javascript user interfaces on the desktop are 
a very good replacement for the traditional GUI, and absolutely 
cross platform. I see nothing I need in other frameworks that I 
can't offer myself in D. We're already on top and we don't know 
it yet
