D future ...

[SC via Digitalmars-d]

People here under estimate the necessity to have EXCELLENT editor 
support

Without editor, nobody will want to write code in D, there are 
ton of languages now, all with great editor support (Rust, Go, 
Kotlin, Scalla, C#, java, C/C++), people have choice

There are 10 IDE/plugin project for d, this is too much, half are 
already dead, we go nowhere, please focus on one that is 
crossplatform (IntelliJ)

And jetbrains are working on Kotlin native, another big 
competitor..
