Yeah, I think that's the basic problem with people's expectations 
of vibe.d. What is hard is not vibe.d but to know how to set up a 
web project properly, which is a different kettle of fish. Maybe 
we should make this clear to everyone: vibe.d helps you to set up 
a server/web service, if you are already familiar with or willing 
to learn web stuff.

Nice additions to vibed.org would be:

1. (more) template projects (chat room etc.)
2. a section that addresses common problems (cross origin access 
and whatnot)

The web is a never ending source of grief for developers. Did you 
know that to be able to play sound files more than once in Chrome 
you have to `addField("Accept-Ranges", "bytes")` whenever a sound 
file is requested? Not so with FF. It just never ends, and I 
think sooner or later you will run into problems like that with 
any framework.

tldr; vibe.d helps you to set up web servers, but you have to 
know web related stuff too - or be willing to learn it as you go 
along. It's not straight out of the box.
