I used D for web in 2009 until about 2013 for work, and then 
changed jobs and didn't get back into using D until this year.

my own web.d

Libraries suck. I avoid them unless they are ubiquitous. Using 
traditional cgi meant it could go with a well-tested production 
server.

everything server-side, json apis as well as html pages/form 
handling/websockets.

none

on a linux server.

one point) but some refactoring improved it.
