Ok I understand your point.
But sorry to repeat myself, but IMO, for D beginners, dlang.org
is at best, a labyrinth, at worst, a complete mess.
Very honestly.
https://tour.dlang.org/
I'm still convinced that this page is tweaked to become the new
main landing page.
"Welcome to D
What is D?
D is the culmination of decades of experience implementing
compilers for many diverse languages and has a unique set of
features:
high level constructs for great modeling power
high performance, compiled language
static typing
direct interface to the operating system API's and hardware
blazingly fast compile-times
memory-safe subset (SafeD)
maintainable, easy to understand code
gradual learning curve (C-like syntax, similar to Java and
others)
compatible with C application binary interface
limited compatibility with C++ application binary interface
multi-paradigm (imperative, structured, object oriented,
generic, functional programming purity, and even assembly)
built-in error detection (contracts, unittests)
... and many more {features}.
Take a tour
Want to try D online ? Simply click on the "run" button (or
Ctrl-enter) below the example on the right to compile and run it.
And the example can be freely edited if you want to experiment
with D programming.
If you want to see other examples, click on the "next" button
below to see the next example of the dlang-tour.

Just add the 4 examples I suggested, and you have a brand-new
beginner-friendly website without changing anything else to the
website canvas.
